Description
This modern-style bust of a bearded Abraham Lincoln is elongated, almost creating a caricature of the president rather than a portrait. The bust sits on a small square base. White paint is rubbed on it to highlight the texture and details. The sculpture is inscribed on the back of the head, "H. Schor c. 57."
