Theodore Roosevelt, the citizen
Theodore Roosevelt, the citizen is a 1904 biography by Jacob A. Riis, published in New York by The Outlook Company, written for general readers about Theodore Roosevelt. Its photographs and portraits show Roosevelt at different ages, from a young man with a moustache to a seated figure reading papers, a standing full-length pose, and an older bearded man in a painted portrait. A designer might take from them the formal sepia portrait conventions of the early 1900s, with three-quarter poses, plain studio backdrops and soft tonal shading.
