EDITORS COMMENTS
This half-length portrait of Abraham Lincoln, taken during his presidential campaign in 1860, is an enduring testament to the iconic image of one of America's greatest leaders. The photograph, captured by Alexander Hesler in Springfield, Illinois, on June 3, 1860, is a rare and precious artifact from a pivotal moment in American history. The image, which shows Lincoln facing right, is one of several poses taken that day, but it is this particular rendition that has been singled out for its striking accuracy in capturing the essence of the man. Lincoln's law partner, William H. Herndon, who knew him intimately, described the unique features of Lincoln's visage that make this portrait so remarkable. He noted the distinctive curve of Lincoln's lower lip, the solitary mole on his right cheek, and the pose of his head that so perfectly encapsulates the Lincolnian spirit. Herndon's observation is borne out in this photograph, which stands apart from other depictions of Lincoln for its uncanny resemblance to the man himself. The photograph, which dates from 1894, is a valuable reminder of the power of the photographic medium to preserve history and capture the likeness of those who have shaped our world. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of Abraham Lincoln and a reminder of the importance of preserving the past for future generations.
