EDITORS COMMENTS
This albumen print, titled "Portrait of Lincoln as a Presidential Candidate, 1860" captures the essence and charisma of Abraham Lincoln during his campaign for presidency. Taken on June 3,1860 by Alexander Hesler, an accomplished American photographer, this photograph quickly became Lincoln's favorite portrait of himself. In this sepia-toned image, Lincoln is portrayed seated with a dignified posture that exudes confidence and strength. His piercing gaze reflects determination and resilience, embodying the qualities of a true leader. The composition highlights his noble features and emphasizes his role as a presidential candidate in the upcoming election. The use of albumen printing technique adds depth to the image while preserving intricate details. This method was popular during the mid-19th century and involved coating paper with egg white before applying light-sensitive chemicals to create a positive image. As we observe this historic photograph today, it serves as a reminder of Lincoln's significant impact on American history. It symbolizes not only his personal journey but also represents the hopes and aspirations of an entire nation during one of its most critical periods. Preserved by eGraphicaArtis in collaboration with Bridgeman Images, this remarkable piece allows us to connect with our past and appreciate the legacy left behind by one of America's greatest leaders.
