I found an article online here from the Chicago Sun-Times which tells about a limited edition poster issued by the Ravinia Festival in honor of Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday. The creator of the poster is multiple Grammy winning singer Tony Bennett, who is also a notable artist. The poster is shown in this photo.
The poster will be sold at the Ravinia gift shop. Proceeds will be divided equally between the festival and a charitable organization (“Exploring The Arts”) founded by Bennett and his wife, which supports arts education in the New York City schools.
The artwork was previously featured on Harold Holzer’s book “Why Lincoln Matters.”
I’m not an artist or art critic by any means, but I think this is beautiful and wanted to share it with my readers.
