Description: Designed by John B. Bachelder and painted by Alonzo Chappel, this work of art depicts those who visited the dying president throughout the night and early morning of April 14–15, 1865. These people did not visit Lincoln at the same time: they could not have all fit in the small first-floor room of the Petersen House. Lincoln’s wife, Mary, is pictured in the center, lying across the president’s body. His son Robert stands in the foreground to the right of the bed. Vice President Andrew Johnson is seated at the far left.
