SUMMARY:WFK Travers Lincoln Portrait (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The Lincoln Portrait: A Remarkable Journey of Rediscovery\nDiscover the fascinating story behind one of the most extraordinary portraits of President Abraham Lincoln ever created. \nThe National Portrait Gallery recently unveiled a rare\, life-size portrait of Lincoln painted by artist W. F. K. Travers in 1865. Standing nine feet tall\, this remarkable oil painting is one of only three known life-size portraits of the 16th president. On long-term loan from the Hartley Dodge Foundation\, it offers a unique opportunity to see Lincoln as few people have before. \nArt historian Mallory Mortillaro will share the incredible journey of this historic artwork. Based on her firsthand research\, she traces the portrait’s travels from prestigious venues such as the United States Capitol and the Centennial Exposition to its longtime home at the Hartley Dodge Memorial. She will also explain how the painting was rediscovered and eventually found its way to the National Portrait Gallery. \nAlong the way\, you’ll learn more about Lincoln’s enduring legacy and the important role that preservation and historical research play in keeping America’s stories alive. \nThe Lake Bluff Library will also offer a separate virtual tour of the Smithsonian exhibition featuring the portrait. \nWhether you’re interested in history\, art\, or Abraham Lincoln\, this engaging presentation offers a unique look at a remarkable piece of American history. \nRegistration is required.
