Thank you, gentlemen, for your terrific contributions! It's great to see such a variety of media and images.

Artist Maira Kalman's tribute to Lincoln in words and pictures, "In Love With A. Lincoln," is too lengthy to post, but you can see it here: http://goo.gl/f92R3S

A rarely seen painting of a wounded Lincoln being carried from Ford's Theatre to the Petersen House is undergoing restoration. By Carl Bersch, a German immigrant painter, it was done in 1865 and is believed to be the only painting depicting Lincoln's assassination by an eyewitness to the tragedy:

What a unique work of art and history. I hope more members view this.
Thank you, LoyaltyofDogs, for posting.

I don't think I've ever seen this. Wish it were a bit lighter as to discern more detail.
Thank you, @LoyaltyOfDogs.

You're welcome, Chellers. I hope there might be a follow-up article with photos after the restoration is complete. If I see one, I'll share it here.

That would be great, LOD. Thanks.

These are very interesting, @War Horse. Thank you much for posting.

Rats. Can't decide if I like that or not. Not hugely given to ' What does it mean?' in art, to each his own- it'd be an awfully boring world if everyone thought alike. Also not into heavy messages hanging on one's wall. Would have to know what this is about? Anyone have a guess? That's a genuine question, please?

This pic gives me pause, as well. Lincoln appears to be black or mulatto. I sense a message-laden portrait but haven's spent much time studying it.

I don't like it, but gave a 'like' as an appreciation for the contribution.

Here's are a few caricatures I did tonight. I call it Six Lincolns:

Very interesting to pick out the various nuances of each caricature! Thank you, sir. Like 'em all.

I absolutely love this portrait. A young man hard at work without a clue what the future holds and what important work lies ahead.

I don't know the name of the artist.
