EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in time - President Roosevelt leaving the Institute of Butantan in Sao Paolo, accompanied by Secretary of State Altino Arantes. The year was 1913, and Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, had embarked on an extraordinary scientific expedition to explore the depths of the Amazon basin. Known as the Roosevelt-Rondon Scientific Expedition, this daring venture saw President Roosevelt and Colonel Candido Rondon navigate through uncharted territories along the Rio da Dvida (River of Doubt). Their courageous journey was not without its perils; indeed, it is said that Roosevelt's life hung in balance during this treacherous voyage. Such was his impact that the river itself was renamed "Rio Roosevelt" in his honor. In this portrait-like image, we see President Roosevelt seated comfortably inside a motor car - a symbol of progressiveness and modernity. His presence exudes strength and determination as he gazes confidently into the distance. Accompanying him is Secretary Altino Arantes, who played an essential role in facilitating diplomatic relations between Brazil and America. This photograph serves as a testament to both Theodore Roosevelt's unwavering spirit for exploration and his significant contributions to American politics. It immortalizes a remarkable chapter in history when science met statesmanship amidst South America's lush landscapes.
