The comparison of plaster casts from 1860 and 1865 is a meaningful reminder that each president experiences the kind of stress that likely shortens each of their natural lives, even barring a terrible death like that of President Lincoln. Hell, look at a photo of George W. Bush in 2000 and today. Regardless of how you feel about the man, you can see the stress he wears in his face.
