This photograph shows the former president with his eldest son, Kermit, taken around 1910, when the two had recently returned from the Smithsonian-Roosevelt African Expedition of 1909 to 1910. Theodore Roosevelt had left the White House in 1909 and was still a widely photographed public figure, so a portrait of him with a grown son offers a more personal view than the official images of his presidency. The print's copyright notice credits Warrington Dawson, a writer who was a close associate of the Roosevelt family and who documented them in print and in images.
