A family quarrel

Description

Abstract:
The rupture between the North and South is presented here as a domestic dispute. Lincoln wears a star-spangled shirt and striped trousers while his wife wears a stars-and-bars apron. In the hallway, the houseboy tiptoes past the open doorway. Each holds half a map of the United States.
