RE: Was Lincoln's Depression a Blessing?
I have heard over the years that in regards to photography in Lincoln’s era that the reason for the non-smiling was due to the process itself. It was difficult to maintain a smile for so long? And/or the smile might actually ruin the photograph because of movement of facial muscles during the shoot?
