This halftone reproduction shows a bust of Theodore Roosevelt, turned slightly to the left, rendered in the hard-edged tones of a printed photograph. The work is by Percy Bryant Baker, an English-born American sculptor known for portrait busts and memorial figures of public men. Halftone printing let newspapers, magazines, and books carry images of sculptures like this one to readers who would never see the originals, which helped spread Roosevelt's likeness after his death in 1919. The record does not give a date, so the exact moment of the reproduction remains unknown.
