Lincoln the Lawyer, also known as The Young Circuit Lawyer, Young Lincoln or simply Abraham Lincoln, is a Lorado Taft sculpture now located on the 1000 block of Race Street, Urbana, Illinois, across from Urbana High School in Carle Park. The statue was dedicated by Taft on July 3, 1927. It was moved to the eastern entrance of Carle Park on December 4, 1927, when it was first placed on a pedestal facing due east. Taft requested a slightly different placement, facing southeast, and the statue was moved about 20 feet north to the present site in December 1955. It was restored in 2003, and added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 10, 2004. rdf:langString
La Lincoln the Lawyer, nota anche come The Young Circuit Lawyer, Young Lincoln o semplicemente Abraham Lincoln è una scultura opera di Lorado Taft e situata nel block 1.000 di Race Street a Urbana (Illinois), proprio di fronte alla Urbana High School di Carle Park. Il lascito di 10000 $ fu finanziato dalla vendita della sua casa nella vicina Green Street. Questo importo era meno della metà della normale commissione di Taft per la commissione del bronzo, ma potrebbe aver accettato lo stesso anche a causa dei suoi stretti legami con la comunità. Era difatti stato allevato nella vicina Champaign. rdf:langString

It was restored in 2003, and added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 10, 2004. Lincoln had ridden as a circuit lawyer on the 8th Judicial Circuit through Urbana from 1837 to 1848. The statue was paid for by a bequest of Mrs. J.O. Cunningham who, with her husband, had been friends of Lincoln since his time as a circuit lawyer. The bequest of $10,000 was funded by the sale of her house on nearby Green Street. This amount was less than half of Taft's usual commission for work in bronze, but he may have accepted the commission because of his close ties to the community. He had been raised in nearby Champaign. * Carle Park, December 2004 * June 2010 *
rdf:langString La Lincoln the Lawyer, nota anche come The Young Circuit Lawyer, Young Lincoln o semplicemente Abraham Lincoln è una scultura opera di Lorado Taft e situata nel block 1.000 di Race Street a Urbana (Illinois), proprio di fronte alla Urbana High School di Carle Park. La statua venne inaugurata il 3 luglio del 1927. Fu spostata all'entrata orientale di Carle Park il 4 dicembre seguente, quando fu posizionata per la prima volta su un piedistallo rivolto in direzione Est. Taft richiese un posizionamento leggermente diverso, rivolto a Sud-est, e la statua fu spostata circa 20 piedi a nord verso il sito attuale nel dicembre del 1955. Fu restaurata nel 2003 e aggiunta al National Register of Historic Places il 10 marzo del 2004. Raffigura il 16° presidente degli Stati Uniti d'America Abraham Lincoln; egli aveva esercitato in qualità di avvocato dell'ottavo circuito giudiziario dal 1837 fino al 1848. Il monumento venne pagato da un lascito della signora J. O. Cunningham la quale, assieme con suo marito, era stata una cara amica del futuro presidente fin da quegli anni. Il lascito di 10000 $ fu finanziato dalla vendita della sua casa nella vicina Green Street. Questo importo era meno della metà della normale commissione di Taft per la commissione del bronzo, ma potrebbe aver accettato lo stesso anche a causa dei suoi stretti legami con la comunità. Era difatti stato allevato nella vicina Champaign.
