This large un-retouched Abraham Lincoln copy portrait by American Reproduction Photographer Moses Parker Rice is produced from the Original Negative by Alexander Gardner, taken on November 8, 1863, at Washington, D.C.. This huge Silver Gelatin Photograph measures 10.25" x 13.25" being matted and framed to 19" x 23" (by sight), not examined outside of frame.

"Studio Limited 375 St. Catherine St. West Montreal Plateau 2143 --- A Japanese Rice print from the original un-retouched negative of Abraham Lincoln, made in Washington by Moses P. Rice in 1864, at the time he commissioned General U.S. grant Lieut. General of all the Armies of the Republic, / Copyright in Washington D.C. 1891. / Moses P. Rice and Amos I. Rice, founder of the Rice Studio Limited Montreal, were in business in Washington during the Civil War. Rice Studio Limited".
