Here the sitter is Theodore Roosevelt, shown in a portrait photoprint dated around 1904, the year he won election to a full term as president after succeeding William McKinley in 1901. The print was copyrighted by Pach Bros., a New York studio known for its society and celebrity portraits of the period, so it reflects the commercial portrait trade that circulated images of public figures to a wide audience. The caption card that accompanied it is unverified, so its dates and identifying details should be read with some caution. Roosevelt's image was widely reproduced in these years, making studio prints like this one a useful window onto how the presidency was presented to the public.
