Gutzon Borglum (1867-1941)
“Seated Lincoln”
Signed Gutzon Borglum
Inscribed Gorham Foundary & Co.
Bronze with rich brown patina.
The seated Lincoln was inspired by Borglum’s research, reading that Lincoln often sat alone on a bench in the White House garden to gather his thoughts during the American Civil War.
In 1908, Borglum completed the marble bust of Lincoln, now installed at the U.S. Capitol, and later sculpted the heads of four U.S. presidents, including Lincoln, at Mount Rushmore.
