Roosevelt is shown seated and facing the camera in this three-quarter portrait, a pose that suits the formal studio portraiture of the period. The image dates to about 1910, a year when he was a former president, back from his African safari and European tour, and drawing large crowds as a public speaker. The record notes a copyright registration by the Moffett studio, which indicates the photograph was made for commercial circulation as well as for the sitter's public image. Such portraits were widely reproduced in newspapers, magazines, and pamphlets, so they helped shape how Americans pictured him after he left the White House.
