Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt are shown riding in an open car alongside a Yellowstone National Park official, a detail that places this picture in the park rather than in Washington, where most presidential photographs of the period were taken. The print is dated to about 1937, the first full year of Roosevelt's second term, when he was using road trips and public appearances to show support for federal parks and conservation programs. Open cars gave photographers clear views of the president, and the scene reflects the informal, travel-focused image the Roosevelts often cultivated.
