Description
President Abraham Lincoln and his youngest son Tad came to Richmond, Virginia, on April 4, 1865-three days after the Confederate capital had fallen to Union General Grant’s army. Though weary from the war’s long travails, Lincoln came “to bind up the nation’s wounds.” As a journalist who witnessed the visit reported, the president “came not as a conqueror, not with bitterness in his heart, but with kindness. He came as a friend, to alleviate sorrow and suffering-to rebuild what has been destroyed.”
Made of bronze (lost wax). "Lost Wax" bronze (or hot-cast bronze) is actually 100% pure Bronze - essentially copper and tin. The most known and used process for making "lost wax" involves pouring of molten bronze. This is the same method used by the ancient civilizations to create bronze sculptures. The making of a "lost wax" bronze is a complex and time consuming process, and specific technical expertise is needed to accomplish the task of making a bronze.
