Description

This figurine depicts Abraham Lincoln seated in a square seat similar to the one at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. Lincoln is depicted with a beard and is dressed in a long outer coat, vest, shirt, pants, and rounded shoes. His PL leg sits under him on the ground at a near ninety degree angle, while his PR leg is extended forward some, with the toe resting over the edge of the step. Both arms rest away from his main body on the armrests of the seat. The seat sits atop two stairs. Along the back of the figurine, fabric is draped over the back of the seat. The piece is a dark bronze colored.
