EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt, the beloved second wife of President Theodore Roosevelt and First Lady of the United States from 1901 to 1909, with her charming daughter Ethel Carow Roosevelt. The image, taken circa 1904, showcases the elegant pair dressed in their finest white attire, standing near a picturesque oyster bay. Edith, known as "Edith Kermit" due to her admiration for the poet Edgar Allan Poe and the character Kermit from his work, was a gracious and refined woman who brought a sense of tranquility and sophistication to the White House. Her daughter Ethel, born in 1891, was a beautiful and intelligent young girl who would later marry John A. Derby in 1912. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and the striking resemblance between mother and daughter, offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of the First Family during the early 20th century.
