    It is this image as same as the stature in Memorial Hall, which looks more strict without smile in comapring another photo picture that look much kinder with smile. However... The formality is an element of being a President of United States in consideration of image exhibition in public place.

    Guys, a lot of the photography techniques back then could take several minutes, hence the reason people did not smile much in photos back then as they had to hold the pose for a few minutes. wet collodion was used for this photo. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collodion

Georges Sand

    "Amandine Aurore Lucile Dupin, later Baroness Dudevant (1804-1876), best known by her pseudonym George Sand, was a French novelist and feminist." Wikipedia

    "...people think it very natural and pardonable to trifle with what is most sacred when dealing with women: women do not count in the social or moral order. I solemnly vow—and this is the first glimmer of courage and ambition in my life!—that I shall raise woman from her abject position, both through my self and my writing, God will help me!...let female slavery also have its Spartacus. That shall I be, or perish in the attempt."

    George Sand in a letter to Frederic Girerd, 1837  (Winegarten, 161)


    Nadar [photographer] was the pseudonym of Gaspard-Félix Tournachon (1820-1910), a French photographer, caricaturist, journalist, novelist and balloonist. —(more) Wikipedia
