        A RARE WHITE PLASTER BUST OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN. JONES, THOMAS DOW. 1811-1881. Signed T.D. Jones sculptor 1861.

        Est: $3,000 - $5,000

        A RARE WHITE PLASTER BUST OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN. JONES, THOMAS DOW. 1811-1881. Signed T.D. Jones sculptor 1861. Height 33 in (84 cm); width 25 in (63.5 cm). Provenance: Purchased from Ralph G. Newman, the well-known Abraham Lincoln scholar and owner of the Abraham Lincoln Bookshop, February 14, 1990. Thomas Dow Jones was commissioned by the Ohio Republican Party to make a marble bust of Abraham Lincoln. The artist traveled to Springfield, IL and set up a studio at the St. Nicholas Hotel, where, with some difficulty, he persuaded Lincoln to sit for him. The sculpture was completed in February 1861, just before Lincoln left for Washington, DC and his inauguration. When shown the final product, the first to represent Lincoln with a beard, Lincoln reportedly said, 'I think it looks very much like the critter.' The original marble sculpture is in the Senate Chamber of the Ohio State Capital. Plaster copies of the Dow Jones bust are to be found in Harvard's Houghton Library, the New York Historical Society, the Indiana State House and the Governor's Mansion in Springfield, IL.

      • LINCOLN BUST SCULPTURE THOMAS DOW JONES
        Jul. 29, 2006

        LINCOLN BUST SCULPTURE THOMAS DOW JONES

        Est: $7,000 - $9,000

        SCULPTURE- Original plaster Life Portrait Bust of Abraham Lincoln executed by Thomas Dow Jones (Ohio, 1811-1881), dated 1861. Jones was grantied sittings by Lincoln at his home in Springfield before he departed for Washington, DC to assume the Presidency. The original clay modello served as the basis for two marble busts, (which reside in the White House and Capitol Building) and a handful of plaster casts, which are held in great esteem, as represented by the fact that the mate to this is on display in the National Gallery. The bust is notable for its vivid likeness, which captures both Lincoln's rugged features and humanity. It is the only life portrait of Lincoln to depict him in a good humor. Signed 'T. Jones Sculpt 1861'. Life portrait busts of Lincoln are vitually unobtainable in the marketplace. Lightly overpainted at an early date, or perhaps as an original finish. 33" tall.
