Franklin Delano Roosevelt was a president who oversaw tectonic shifts in American life. The president oversaw the reconstruction of America’s economy during the Great Depression, led America through the Second World War, and oversaw numerous changes to the political system of the U.S..
For his handling of these matters, Roosevelt is considered to be one of the greatest presidents the United States has ever had. This photo was taken on April 11, 1945 – the day before Roosevelt’s passing – as he posed for a presidential portrait that was never finished.
