President Roosevelt before a flag-draped podium on a wooden deck, with an American flag behind him. The picture is taken from the side; Roosevelt appears to have turned sideways, away from the audience and towards the camera. However, his audience may entirely surround the deck, or all may have a frontal focal point.
