LOS ANGELES, Calif. (KABC) -- A statue at the Los Angeles Federal Courthouse is getting a lot of attention.

The chiseled bronze sculpture depicts a young, shirtless Abraham Lincoln, who appears to be tugging at his waistband. The "Young Lincoln" sculpture is from 1941, but a recent tweet is causing a social media frenzy.

Twitter users are adding their own titles, like "Honest Abs," "Babe-raham Lincoln," and "The Gettysburg Undress."
