Answer: B) To portray the subject as a hero

Explanation: By depicting Abraham Lincoln with typical American iconography such as a flag (I’m assuming American) and globe, it shows him as a hero of America, standing next to what he helped create. Plus the other answer choices don’t make a lot of sense for these specific edits.
