This print shows Abraham Lincoln with the members of his cabinet, the group of advisers who worked with him through the Civil War. The shelflist card records no date, and the only name attached to it is Kelly, T., so the maker and the time of creation are unconfirmed. Group portraits of the cabinet circulated widely during the 1860s, in engraved and photographic form, so the arrangement of the figures and the way each official is posed are worth studying as a statement of how the administration presented itself.
