Description
The Lincoln Museum is currently host to a collection of Lincoln portraits by Wendy Allen, An Increased Devotion: A New Look at Abraham Lincoln.
The night before his assassination, Lincoln claimed to have a dream that had recurred several times in his life -- always before "some important event or disaster." Secretary of State William Seward's son later recalled, "Mr. Lincoln remarked that a peculiar dream of the previous night... -- a vague sense of floating -- floating away on some vast and indistinct expanse, toward an unknown shore."
