Little is recorded about this portrait beyond its title, which pairs Leonard Wood Jr. with his wife and comes from data the National Photo Company wrote on the negative or its sleeve, so the identification is unverified. Wood Jr. was the son of General Leonard Wood, the Army officer who later served as governor-general of the Philippines, and the National Photo Company, based in Washington, D.C., made many portraits of officials and prominent families in the 1910s and 1920s. The picture survives as a glass negative, a fragile format whose coatings can streak and deteriorate over time, so the faint blemishes visible today are part of its physical history.
