    The casting could certainly be......better.

    Yikes. I've heard of moth holes in clothing, but not brass! I'm guessing it's a student project

    Looks like someone pulled it out of the reject/scrap bin.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It doesn't look like Lincoln to me. But given the poor casting, who knows?

    More likely bronze than brass if it is metal. It was intended to be Lincoln, several features indicate that to me, but the artist gets an “F” for the facial likeness.

    Given the pose, all he's lacking is a knitting project.
