ROBERT TERRY (USA BORN 1955). ”Friday, Oct 1, 1858” - Portrait of Abraham Lincoln.

Oil on canvas, 50.5 x 40 cm. Signed and dated Robert Terry 1995-1996 on the reverse. The Lincoln paintings were made between 1995 and 2013, a series of intense portraits of Abraham Lincoln. One of the earliest examples of these portraits is “Friday, Oct 1, 1858”. Each portrait depicts Abraham Lincoln in frontal or three-quarter view from the shoulders up. Some of the paintings show him with beard, in others he is clean-shaven but always wearing a black suit and white shirt with wing collar and black bow tie.
