Abraham Lincoln is shown here as a portrait lithograph, a print method that let artists reproduce a drawing in large numbers and so spread a likeness of a public figure far beyond the people who ever saw him in person. Lincoln's face became one of the most reproduced images of the 19th century, especially during and after the Civil War, when demand for portraits of the president was intense. Prints like this one helped shape how Americans pictured their leader, and they are worth studying for the way they blended careful likeness with the idealized style of the era.
