Theodore Roosevelt sits at a desk in this c1905 photographic print, a detail that sets it apart from the many formal portraits of the president from his years in office. The caption card lists desks and a shelf among its subjects, so the setting seems to be a working study rather than a studio backdrop. Roosevelt, who served as the 26th president from 1901 to 1909, was known for his energetic public style and his love of books and writing, and the office setting reflects that reputation. The record is brief and its details are unverified, but the picture offers a glimpse of the president at his work during the Progressive Era.
