EDITORS COMMENTS
The New President of the United States (engraving) captures a pivotal moment in American history, showcasing the 16th President-elect, Abraham Lincoln. This remarkable print, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the anticipation and excitement surrounding Lincoln's rise to power. Displayed against a backdrop of stunning architectural grandeur, this engraving highlights not only Lincoln's residence but also symbolizes his upcoming role as leader of a divided nation. The intricate details of historic houses in Springfield, Illinois serve as a reminder of Lincoln's humble beginnings and his deep connection to the people he would soon represent. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back to December 1860 when it was first published in The Illustrated London News. It serves as both documentation and celebration of democracy in action during one of America's most challenging periods. Intriguingly capturing politicians from that era alongside their future president, this print allows us to witness history unfolding before our eyes. With every line etched onto paper by skilled hands, it immortalizes not just Abraham Lincoln but also the hopes and dreams entrusted upon him by millions across the United States. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an extraordinary piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection – reminding us all that art can be a powerful medium for preserving our shared past.
