Good eyes! The bust is marked in French &quot;Abolition d&#039;esclavage 1865&quot; which translates to Abolition of Slavery 1865. I have uploaded a few additional images giving a much closer look at the bust. The bust does remove from the niche so the 2nd picture is in hand.</p><p>Please let me know if you have any other questions or would like any additional images.</p><p>Thank you,</p><p>Susan Brown</p><p>King Galleries&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>So, my guess is that the buffet&#039;s alcove either was designed to be vacant ( to add your own whatnot), or there was an original decorative element that has gone missing. The gallery has been so gracious, I don&#039;t dare ask them to climb up there and look for a dowel hole, especially since I&#039;m not planning on bidding. In any case, it&#039;s Lincoln, or so the artist intended.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]250933[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250934[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
