Lincoln Statue of Emancipation, Lincoln Park, Washington, D.C., U.S.A.

The stereograph features a black and white image of a statue featuring Abraham Lincoln standing by a kneeling male slave, his proper left hand raised as he is about to emancipate the slave. In his proper right hand, which rests on a bronze podium, Lincoln holds an unrolled copy of the Emancipation Proclamation. To the rear of the figures is a whipping post, chains, shackles, and a frayed whip. On each corner of the podium are fasces and around the base of the podium are thirteen stars. A bas-relief of George Washington decorates the angled face of the podium and a Union shield decorates the inner face of the podium. The albumen print is mounted on a gray card with rounded edges.https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/fvw-photographs/1053/thumbnail.jp
