MANFRED LINUS KREINER (1926–2005)

Title: John F. Kennedy — Presidential Tribune, Inauguration, 1961

DESCRIPTION:
Magnificent photograph by Manfred Linus Kreiner in Washington, D.C., on January 20, 1961, during the inauguration of John F. Kennedy as the 35th President of the United States.
The image captures Kennedy from the presidential tribune, as he attends the inaugural parade following the ceremony. In a particularly close framing, Kreiner seizes the new president smiling, in a moment of relaxation and spontaneity at the heart of this historic day.
Kennedy’s expression, imbued with confidence and charisma, gives this photograph a particularly human dimension beyond the solemnity of presidential protocol.
This photograph belongs to the The Kennedy Years corpus of Manfred L. Kreiner, rediscovered from the negatives originally kept in the photographer’s estate archives.
