The title places Theodore Roosevelt on his departure from England, a moment that caught the attention of the press. The record gives no date, and the title comes from caption data written by the Bain News Service, so the exact day remains unconfirmed. Roosevelt had visited Britain in spring 1910, months after leaving the presidency, and he delivered a lecture at Oxford during that trip. The Bain News Service, a New York photo agency, sold pictures like this one to newspapers, which accounts for its quick, news-driven character.
