The cabin in this photograph is presented as the Abraham Lincoln log cabin, a building tied to the family's frontier life before Lincoln rose to national prominence. Log houses like this were the common shelter of the Ohio Valley and the Kentucky and Indiana backcountry where Lincoln spent his childhood, so the picture also shows the rough conditions of his early years. The print comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection, a body of news photographs taken around 1929 that documents how Lincoln's early home was remembered in that era.
