The record gives no date for this view of Theodore Roosevelt at the Capitol, and its title comes from caption data written by the Bain News Service that has not been independently verified. Roosevelt served as president from 1901 to 1909 and was often in Washington for meetings, ceremonies and public appearances. The Bain agency was a New York firm that sold news photographs to newspapers, so images like this one were made to circulate quickly and show a recognizable figure in a public setting.
