EDITORS COMMENTS
This platinum print showcases the iconic figure of Abraham Lincoln, captured around 1860 by Alexander Hesler. The image exudes a sense of historical significance and authenticity, transporting us back to a pivotal moment in American history. Lincoln's half-length portrait is rendered with remarkable detail and clarity, highlighting his strong presence as a statesman during the mid-19th century. As one of the most influential political figures in American history, Lincoln's image carries immense weight and symbolism. The use of platinum printing technique adds an exquisite touch to this photograph, enhancing its timeless appeal. The metalwork involved in creating this print further emphasizes its craftsmanship and artistic value. In black and white tones, this portrait captures not only Lincoln's physical features but also his character as a leader. It serves as a powerful reminder of the historic events that unfolded during his presidency. Printed by George B. Ayes from Hesler's original negative, this particular version was produced in 1900 - an early 20th-century testament to Lincoln's enduring legacy. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from our private collection, we are reminded of the profound impact that Abraham Lincoln had on shaping America's past and present. His unwavering leadership during turbulent times continues to inspire generations today.
