Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865) was the 16th President of the United States. Painted to commemorate the Emancipation Proclamation. Inscribed 'Proof' lower left. In 1860 under his presidency South Carolina secedes from the Union. Followed within two months by Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas. A bloody civil war then engulfed the nation as Lincoln vowed to preserve the Union, enforce the laws of the United States, and end the secession. What started as a war to preserve the Union and vindicate democracy became a battle for freedom and a war to end slavery when Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in January of 1863. Although the Proclamation did not free all slaves in the nation—indeed, no slaves outside of the Confederacy were affected by the Proclamation—it was an important symbolic gesture that identified the Union with freedom and the death of slavery. As part of the Proclamation, Lincoln also urged black males to join the Union forces as soldiers and sailors. By the end of the war, nearly two hundred thousand African Americans had fought for the Union cause, and Lincoln referred to them as indispensable in ensuring Union victory.

Johanna Maria (Jenny) Lind (1820-1887) was a singer, born and trained in Sweden. Her exquisite voice, allied with rare qualities of character, aroused intense enthusiasm in British audiences, following her debut in 1847. She became famous after her performance in Der Freischutz in Sweden in 1838, and then she was in great demand all over Europe. In England she was appointed a professor of singing at the Royal College of Music.

Lithograph on octagonal chine collé. Sheet: 615 x 445mm (24¼ x 17½"), very large margins. Some foxing across the sheet. Small repaired tear in the top edge.
A half length portrait of Dr. John Lindley (1799-1865), a notable botanist, gardener and orchidologist. A chance connection with Sir Joseph Banks that saw Lindley employed as an assistant in his herbarium provided the ideal beginning to what would become a successful career in botany and horticulture. Despite his family not being able to afford to send him to university, Lindley's research and publications, which he illustrated himself, earned him such high esteem that he was appointed professor of Botany at the new London University in 1829. He held this position alongside his post as the Assistant Secretary of the Royal Horticultural Society's garden. His magum opus 'The Genera and Species of Orchidaceous Plants' led to his recognition as the leading authority on the orchid plant species. This protrait is from the Ipswich Museum Portraits series published by George Ransom in 1852: the sixty portraits of distinguished men of science were commissioned to commemorate the foundation of the museum in 1846.
