The record identifies this piece only by its catalog designation, L-P-28b, within a group of Abraham Lincoln portraits, so its maker and date are not recorded here. Lincoln sat for many photographers and painters over his career, and his likeness spread widely during the 1860s through small photographic cards, engravings, and lithographs. Portraits from this period were often made to be copied and shared, which helps explain why so many versions of his face survive. Comparing details such as pose, lighting, and cropping across a series like this one shows how his public image was shaped.
