Description

Gorgeous oval presidential portrait, signed in the middle of his momentous time in office

Spectacular matte-finish 6 x 8 oval bust portrait of Theodore Roosevelt as president, affixed to a 7.5 x 10.75 mount, beautifully signed on the mount during TR's incumbency in bold black ink, "Sincerely yours, Theodore Roosevelt, May 20th 1906." Attractively suede-matted and framed to an overall size of 15 x 18. In splendid condition. A wonderful image captured in 1904 by photographer George Prince, this portrait is rife with desirable traits-it is a handsome formal portrait of President Roosevelt as the nation's chief executive, was signed during his presidency, and both the image and signature remain in positively remarkable condition. A truly magnificent piece.
