Abraham Lincoln Framed Art Print

Above the White House State Dining Room mantel hangs George P. A. Healy’s contemplative portrait of Abraham Lincoln painted in 1869. The widow of Robert Todd Lincoln (the President’s son) bequeathed the portrait to the White House in 1939.

This popular portrait, painted twenty-two years after Lincoln’s death, was based upon another likeness of Lincoln done by George P. A. Healy for a group portrait in 1869 called the Peace Makers. In it, Lincoln confers with Generals Grant and Sherman and Admiral D. Porter on board the River Queen at City Point, Virginia, near the end of the war. Healy is believed to have done his original life sketches of Lincoln at the White House in 1864.

The Abraham Lincoln framed art print is Approximately 14 3/4″ x 17 1/2″. This makes a wonderful gift of American History.
