The overall tone is one of respect and remembrance, honoring Lincoln's role as a leader and a symbol of American ideals.

The composition, with the statue centered and framed by the architectural elements, creates a sense of balance and draws the viewer's attention to the interplay of light and shadow on Lincoln's face and the surrounding space.
