Jo Davidson (American, 1883-1952), Terracotta  pottery bust of Abraham Lincoln

Reverse inscribed "Jo Davidson 1943", 10" h

Some Finish loss

Item Description  

Here is a great Terracotta Sculpture of our 16th President, Abraham Lincoln, for your buying consideration.  The piece would make a great gift or keep for yourself!  

Beautiful rendering of Abraham Lincoln here.  Appears to be made of terracotta.  Done by Jo Davidson in 1943.  Captures Lincoln's look as President with full beard, probably about the mid- Civil War period.

The sculpture is signed by Jo Davidson and dated 1943 on the back of Lincoln's jacket collar. 

Some minor loss of finish to the sculpture in a few places.  Most notably in the front and back of his hair, on the tip of his nose, and to the base.  A chip to the back left of the base.  See pics.  We have just wiped the piece down, could still use a good cleaning.

This fine art piece is being offered to you at a price below what you would see in a high end gallery.  We are able to do that by controlling our acquisition costs, keeping commission costs low (if applicable), and then we don't have the overhead to pay that a gallery has.

No certificate of authenticity comes with this piece.   Please determine the piece's authenticity for yourself, before acquiring.  You or your agent are welcome to come see the bronze in person before purchasing.

The Abraham Lincoln sculpture is 10" tall, by 4.75" across, by 5.5" wide.  Let us know if you have any questions or need additional pictures.  Don’t be shy to make an offer, we are always open to reasonable suggestions.  

Make sure that this item meets your needs and requirements before deciding to acquire it.   The item can be returned, there is a 15% restocking fee to do so.  So, please carefully review all the attached pictures, ask all the questions you have, come see in person or send a friend to see the item on your behalf, prior to deciding to acquire it.
