    How very sad.

    I agree with Alan. Her face is both haunting and hurt. Look closer and her skin is poor - a sure sign of incorrect diet - she's clearly thin too. Desperate times and she had to fight to survive..

    Supply and demand, she survived.

    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.

    That stern-looking presidential face, etched in our memories FOREVER. Well done, Father Abraham....enter into the kingdom!
  • eliburford said:
    Love the grungy edges :)
  • Luis said:
    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

    Wikipedia says Ambrotypes took 40-60 seconds to get a proper exposure. I don't think I could have kept completely still like in Abe's pose for that whole time.
  • Cathi Stahl said:
    Preston Butler certainly captured the attitude and a *spark* of humor in those eyes...
  • k p said:
    he looks so much younger here
  • Hans Heintz said:
    They sometimes say that in modern times Lincoln wouldn't stand a chance in presidential elections because of his looks. But he sure was aware that he should look statesman-like in a picture :) -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    Wow, he looks so much like Greg Malone, the Newfoundland actor/politician. www.heritage.nf.ca/arts/codcogroup_detail.html Greg is the man in the middle.
