      Yes, it is Lincoln.

      It is NOT a "from life" view, so the value and desirability is significantly less for these lithographic views.

      Just to explain with a few more details: views "from life" have their origin from an original photo/ sitting of the subject. Lithographic views are photographs made from an original etching/ lithograph of the subject.

      Some photographic images are retouched to add details and may have some of the appearances of a lithographic view.
