EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States of America. Taken in 1864 and published in 1901, this photogravure by Francis Bicknell Carpenter showcases Lincoln's remarkable presence and strength as a leader during one of America's most challenging times. With his iconic beard and piercing gaze, Lincoln emanates wisdom and determination. This portrait immortalizes him as a symbol of hope for a nation torn apart by civil war. His Republican affiliation is evident through his confident stance, reflecting his unwavering commitment to preserving the Union. However, behind this powerful image lies an unfortunate truth - it was taken just months before Lincoln's tragic assassination. Shot by John Wilkes Booth in April 1865, this photograph serves as a haunting reminder of the immense loss suffered by the American people. Now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection, this piece carries historical significance that transcends time. It reminds us not only of Lincoln's pivotal role in shaping America but also serves as a testament to our nation's resilience amidst adversity. As we reflect upon this portrait today, let us remember Abraham Lincoln not only for his political achievements but also for his enduring legacy as an emblematic figure who fought tirelessly for justice and equality.
