A number of still photos exist of Abraham Lincoln. There were no motion picture cameras extant at the time, so there is no video, nor it there recorded sound of any kind from that era. There is only a single known photo of President Lincoln taken at Gettysburg on the day he made his speech there, and it is posed. We see many photos from that time that were posed by Lincoln and other subjects. Seeing Lincoln (or anyone else) actually in the midst of giving a speech is not something we'd expect. Photography at the time was much different than it is now, and because of limitations, "action" shots were not something the photographer did much of. As luck would have it though, there is a single known photograph of Lincoln actually giving a speech. It was taken while he was presenting his second inaugural address, and it is linked below.
