Theodore Roosevelt looks straight into the lens in this head-and-shoulders study, a direct and unhurried pose that suits a man who had only recently taken the presidency in his own right. Dated 1904, the year he won election after succeeding William McKinley, the portrait belongs to a decade when newly practical photography made the official image a matter of public relations as much as likeness. The Library of Congress holds it among its early twentieth-century portrait prints, and it offers a useful look at how Roosevelt's public face was presented to voters at the height of his popularity.
