ABOUT THIS PHOTOGRAPH
This three-quarter portrait of the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt, was taken at his home, Sagamore Hill, on Saturday, May 27, 1916, when three thousand Americans came to convince him to campaign for President again.
Roosevelt came from a wealthy family, though he had asthma which he countered with vigorous exercise and a deep interest in the natural world. After the death of his wife in 1884, Roosevelt went to work as a rancher, and what he learned would later enable him to become President of the United States.
Colorizer Deborah Humphries says of working on this portrait: "There really is no other man like him. Not with the style and strength of personality such as Teddy Roosevelt. He's a pleasure to work on. The print archival print was a mess. It is torn, stained, and scratched."

Update on U.S. Orders
We're pausing US shipping from 18 August 2025 while we update our checkout.
Due to a U.S. government executive order, all UK to U.S. shipments will soon be subject to additional tariffs, effective 29 August 2025. While the exact amount isn’t confirmed, we expect it to be around 10% of the item value or a flat $80 per item if duties aren’t paid.
As a small business, we need time to assess the impact and ensure we protect both ourselves and our customers. The USA is our second-largest market after the UK, and although we’re confident this will be resolved soon, we are temporarily halting U.S. sales.
