Description
English: Illustration for Hospital Sketches by American author Louisa May Alcott. Taken from the frontispiece to an 1892 edition published by Roberts Brothers, but this same image was also used in an 1871 edition. In the background of the image is a portrait of President Abraham Lincoln. The caption reads: "JOHN. The manliest man among my forty." The quote refers to a Virginia blacksmith who the narrator (named Tribulation Periwinkle) cares for; the scene is one of the most emotional in the book.
