Portrait life of Lincoln; life of Abraham Lincoln, the greatest American
A 1910 illustrated biography of Abraham Lincoln, written by Francis Trevelyan Miller and Edward Bailey Eaton and published in Springfield, Massachusetts, and New York by The Patriot Publishing Company, aimed at a general American readership. Its pictures are halftone reproductions of photographs and painted portraits of Lincoln at different ages, mostly head-and-shoulders in oval or rectangular frames with plain grey backgrounds, offering a designer a consistent model of nineteenth-century formal portrait conventions such as three-quarter poses, dark coats, and bow ties.
