The vivid colourisation and the character of subject is inspired by the 'Angels' drawn by the illustrator, Peter Mohrbacher. The character itself is an original character that was made to test contemporary body forms and was inspired by orange peels as they naturally have a peeled but smooth broken look.

Abraham Lincoln, presidential candidate. Photo of Lincoln made from a negative taken in Springfield, Illinois, by Alexander Hesler on June 3, 1860. One of several poses from that day. "Wrote Lincoln's law partner, William H. Herndon, 'There is the peculiar curve of the lower lip, the lone mole on the right cheek, and a pose of the head so essentially Lincolnian; no other artist has ever caught it.'"

Zachary Taylor. Circa 1847. By James Maquire. This daguerreotype (half plate) was most likely made in November 1847, when Zachary Taylor returned to a hero’s welcome in New Orleans after the U.S. victory in the Mexican-American War. It represents Taylor in his major general’s uniform and is an original portrait from life. This is evident from the daguerreotype’s lateral reversal, or “mirror image,” which causes Taylor’s jacket to appear to button right-over-left rather than left-over-right. Reproduced and widely circulated in the form of engravings and lithographic prints, this image of the general proved enormously popular. Daguerreotype copies in several formats were also produced.
