Fargon is correct. The gentleman on the right is George F. Kennan.



The other fellow is Frederick Jackson Turner.

You're right on both counts. My bad, I was looking at pictures of Turner in Google images and the had Kennan mixed in. I should have double checked that. :o

Frederick Jackson Turner’s Frontier thesis

The West, not the East, was where distinctively American characteristics emerged. The forging of the unique and rugged American identity occurred at the juncture between the civilization of settlement and the savagery of wilderness. This produced a new type of citizen - one with the power to tame the wild and one upon whom the wild had conferred strength and individuality. As each generation of pioneers moved 50 to 100 miles west, they abandoned useless European practices, institutions and ideas, and instead found new solutions to new problems created by their new environment. Over multiple generations, the frontier produced characteristics of informality, violence, crudeness, democracy and initiative that the world recognized as "American".
