That would seem reasonable from someone who knew only his popular

So what has Lincoln got to do with it?
 Yes, and why "hanging?"

Because it is in a museum or gallery and it is a work by Dali employing mosaic techniques. You have to stand back to see Lincoln or use a special lens to view
Lincoln in this work.  It is a painting hanging on a wall or a lithograph similarly
mounted.
It may be that the term "cursed" is used because the lithographs are extensively
forged by profiteers.
