Lot Description
[Lincoln, Abraham] Marshall, William E. Abraham Lincoln
New York: Ticknor & Fields, 1866. Engraved portrait of Abraham Lincoln, by William E. Marshall. Artist's proof, printed on india paper and mounted to thick wove paper, signed in pencil by Marshall at bottom right. 25 1/2 x 20 in. (648 x 508 mm). Two repairs in top edge, small chipping along same. In handsome period carved wood frame, 33 1/4 x 27 3/4 in. (844 x 705 mm).
A handsome and strong example of William E. Marshall's steel-engraved portrait of Abraham Lincoln, considered one of the finest portraits ever made of the 16th President. Signed proofs are uncommon, and were typically sent to those who knew Lincoln personally. Of those who received them, such as Robert Todd Lincoln, Edwin Stanton, and Charles Sumner, they were met with high praise. Frederick Douglass is known to even have had an example of this print hung in his home.
