Standing upright in a rowboat and leaning on an oar to push off from the shore, Theodore Roosevelt looks more like a man on a casual outing than a president at work. The picture dates to about 1905, during Roosevelt's presidency, when photographers often captured him hiking, riding, and boating. He was known for his love of the outdoors, and images like this helped the public see him as vigorous and at home in nature. The print carries a U.S. Copyright Office registration notation in its record.
