This full-length portrait shows Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, the eldest child of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, seated and turned to the left in an Easter gown. The picture was taken in 1936, a presidential election year, when the family's public image drew close attention and portraits of the president's relatives were widely circulated. The photograph was made by Tager Photo Service, a commercial studio, and its formal pose and full-length framing reflect the conventions of society and family portraiture of the 1930s.
