This painting shows Abraham Lincoln's face in a simple, bold style. It's made with strong lines and dark shadows. The artist used a wood engraving technique to create this image, which was a common method at the time, allowing for mass production of images, and Timothy Cole was particularly skilled at it. You can learn more about this technique by looking into the work of artist: Cole, Timothy.
