Last Photograph of Lincoln
This photograph of President Lincoln was taken on the south balcony of the White House in the late afternoon of March 6, 1865. It is believed to be Lincoln’s last “living” picture. Warren apparently used Thomas (Tad) Lincoln to lure the president out onto the White House balcony for the sitting. Lincoln appears not only preoccupied but more than a little annoyed at Warren’s brash tactics.
