"FIRST READING OF THE EMANc.i.p.aTION PROCLAMATION OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN" This engraving, made from Francis B. Carpenter's huge oil painting completed in 1864, shows the President reading the draft of his Emanc.i.p.ation Proclamation to members of the cabinet. On the left are Edward M. Stanton (seated) and Salmon P. Chase; William H. Seward is seated in front of the table, and Gideon Welles, Caleb B. Smith, Montgomery Blair, and Edward Bates are behind it. A parchment copy of the Const.i.tution lies on the cabinet table, and a painting of Andrew Jackson is faintly visible through the chandelier.

"ABRAHAM LINCOLN WRITING THE EMANc.i.p.aTION PROCLAMATION" This chromolithograph, made from an oil painting by David Gilmour Blythe in 1863, depicts a homespun Lincoln (his rail-splitter's maul is in the foreground) who has pushed aside the state-rights theories of John C. Calhoun and John Randolph and has carelessly allowed a bust of James Buchanan to hang from the bookcase, while he rests his hand on the Holy Bible and heeds the injunction of Andrew Jackson: "The Union Must & Shall be Preserved."

TWO VIEWS OF THE EMANc.i.p.aTION PROCLAMATION

"WRITING THE EMANc.i.p.aTION PROCLAMATION" Adalbert Johann Volck's 1864 etching gives the Copperhead version of the same event, showing Lincoln, with his foot on the Const.i.tution, writing with a pen dipped in the devil's inkstand. On the wall one painting depicts John Brown as a saint and another shows the atrocities that followed a slave insurrection in Santo Domingo.

Because he was so tall, Lincoln did not like standing for a portrait, but this full-length photograph, made by one of Mathew Brady's a.s.sistants in April 1863, shows a poised and surprisingly youthful President.

THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN OF 1864

"THIS REMINDS ME OF A LITTLE JOKE" This cartoon, from Harper's Weekly of September 17, 1864, suggests how insignificant McClellan's candidacy seemed in the weeks before the presidential election.

"LONG ABRAHAM LINCOLN A LITTLE LONGER" Harper's Weekly of November 26, 1864, indicates how the presidential election enhanced Lincoln's stature.

"THE PEACE MAKERS" As the war drew to a close, Lincoln visited Grant's army in Virginia, and there, aboard the River Queen, he conferred with Grant, W. T. Sherman, who came up from North Carolina, and Admiral David D. Porter about the terms for ending the fighting. This painting by George P. A. Healy, which hangs in the White House, was one of President George Bush's favorites.
