Fine art screen print "Abraham Lincoln," an iconic 1968 limited-edition serigraph by the highly celebrated American artist LeRoy Neiman.
About the Artwork
• The Style: The print showcases Neiman's legendary, vibrant expressionist style, layering dynamic patches of blue, green, orange, and red to construct the face of the 16th U.S. President.
• The Source Material: Neiman modeled this portrait closely after the historical photograph of Lincoln taken by Anthony Berger at Mathew Brady’s Washington studio on February 9, 1864.
• The Process: This artwork was meticulously constructed using individual color screens (often dozens of layers) to mimic the deep texture and rich tonal depth of an authentic oil painting. |
