Photorealistic Images of What Abraham Lincoln and Other Historical Figures Might Look Like in Present Day

Eoford created a photorealistic image of Abraham Lincoln as if he lived in the present day. Like the updates to previous presidents by Magdalena Vissagio, Eoford used available technology to make Lincoln modern.

I made the Lincoln one by swapping Lincoln’s face with a portrait of a random politician with FaceApp.

Eoford also updated other historical figures including Frederick Douglass, Benjamin Franklin, Julius Caeser, and Napoleon Bonaparte, among others.
