Little is recorded for this picture beyond its title, "Roosevelt," which the Bain News Service noted on the negative or its caption card. The catalog treats that identification as unverified, so it is best read as a working label. Glass negatives like this one were the everyday format of the Bain agency's news work in the early twentieth century. Theodore Roosevelt, president from 1901 to 1909, was among the most photographed public figures of his time, and the Bain collection holds many portraits and event pictures of him.
