Photo shows Lincoln in a print made from a negative taken by Alexander Hesler, Springfield, Illinois, June 3, 1860. Lincoln said of this portrait: "That looks better and expresses me better than any I have ever seen; if it pleases the people I am satisfied." (Source: Ostendorf, p. 47) "The original plates were retained by George B. Ayres when he bought and sold the Hesler gallery right after the Civil War. In 1881, Ayres made some fine prints directly from the plates, at the same time producing a duplicate set of glass negatives. In 1933, the original plates were cracked in the mail. The post office paid the claim and presented the broken negatives to the Smithsonian Institution. The duplicate plates are now owned by the Chicago Historical Society. (Source: Ostendorf, p. 49)

Авраам Линкольн (12 февраля 1809 - 15 апреля 1865) - американский политик и юрист, занимавший пост 16-го президента США с марта 1861 года до своего вступления в должность в апреле 1865 года. Линкольн провел Соединенные Штаты через Гражданскую войну, самую кровопролитную войну и величайший моральный, конституционный и политический кризис. Он сохранил Союз, отменил рабство, укрепил федеральное правительство и модернизировал экономику. "Я уничтожаю своих врагов, когда делаю их моими друзьями".

Since his death in 1865, Abraham Lincoln has been an iconic American figure depicted in a wide range of media forms including printed materials, sculpture, alternative timelines, animation, documentaries, small cameos, and many fictionalized interpretations. Lincoln's unique physical appearance, including his tall and lanky stature and his distinctive beard, made him a popular subject for portrait artists. Over time, the abundance of portraits of Lincoln has contributed to his iconic status and has helped to ensure that his memory and legacy are preserved.
