Roosevelt's face is shown here in profile, a view that suits a sculptor who wanted the strong nose, jutting chin and heavy spectacles to read clearly in bronze or stone. Theodore Roosevelt served as the 26th president of the United States from 1901 to 1909, and after his death in 1919 many memorials appeared across the country honoring his conservation work, his trust-busting and his leadership during the Progressive Era. Busts like this one were often commissioned for schools, civic halls and clubs that wanted a lasting likeness of him. Notice how the profile emphasizes the outline of his face rather than his expression, which was a common choice for portraits meant to stand in public spaces.
