WILLIAM EDGAR MARSHALL (NY, 1837-1906) This engraving featuring a head and shoulders portrait of President Abraham Lincoln was done from the original painting by William E. Marshall in 1865. The print shows Lincoln in a black coat and bow tie facing toward the viewer"s right. The portrait is surrounded by the decorative oakleaf and floral ovular border which is encased in a decorative rectangular frame all of which are part of the engraving. The title plate is located just below the portrait. Printed in the margin just below the image, "Painted and engraved by Wm. E. Marshall." In the original dark ogee frame, no mat or glass, 27 1/2" x 21 1/4", could be restored. Considered the most accurate portrait of Lincoln at the end of his life, as he posed a week before his assassination.
