The caption on this glass negative names Theodore Roosevelt and his wife, though no date is recorded. Roosevelt was president from 1901 to 1909, and the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that sold news photographs to newspapers, photographed many public figures during those years. Portraits of a president and his spouse show how the couple was presented to the public, and the identification rests on agency data that has not been independently verified.
