"Lincoln Triumphant: The Legacy of Abraham Lincoln in Washington D. C. " Step back in time to the 1930s and witness the grandeur of the Lincoln Memorial, a testament to one of America's greatest leaders. Standing tall and proud, this great statue immortalizes Abraham Lincoln, reminding us of his enduring impact on our nation. Travel further into history as we visit Ford's Theatre in Washington, D. C. , where between 1860 and 1880, an unknown creator captured a moment frozen in time. This iconic venue holds significance as it was here that President Lincoln met his tragic fate at the hands of John Wilkes Booth. On April 19th, 1865, Pennsylvania Avenue witnessed a somber procession - Lincoln's funeral. In this poignant image by an unknown artist, we see the grief-stricken faces of those bidding farewell to their beloved leader. Rev. Abram Dunn Gillette appears before us next; his portrait taken sometime between 1855 and 1865 showcases a man who may have been touched by Lincoln's words or deeds during these tumultuous times. Mrs. Abraham Lincoln also graces our collection with her enigmatic presence. Captured between 1855 and 1865 by an anonymous photographer, she stands as a symbol of strength beside her husband during these trying years. John A. Bingham from Ohio emerges from history's shadows through another unidentified creator's lens. His image captures a man deeply involved in politics during this era when important decisions were being made for our nation’s future. Another figure caught within the frame is John Armour Bingham from Ohio; although little is known about him today, he played his part amidst the political landscape that shaped America between 1860 and1875. The Presidential Canvass of 1864 comes alive through John L Magee’s lens capturing "Little Mac" performing his great two-horse act – showcasing not only Lincoln's campaign but also the vibrant spirit of democracy.
