“The Mask of Lincoln” is part of the museum’s One Life series devoted to multiple images of a single person—in this case Abraham Lincoln. Included are his 1857 “tousled hair” portrait, an 1860 photograph by Mathew Brady, and an engraving of the President reading the Emancipation Proclamation. Closes July 5.
