Prompt

A candid backstage polaroid photo from 1865. Abraham Lincoln is sitting in a canvas director's chair, laughing hysterically while holding a styrofoam coffee cup. A makeup artist is powdering his nose. In the background, the Lincoln Memorial construction is just a painted plywood backdrop. Flash photography, vignetting, harsh shadows, breaking the illusion.
