America's Presidents National Portrait Gallery

Published in association with the National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Books,

The National Portrait Gallery and the White House have the only complete collections of presidential portraits. Charged with commemorating and recognizing the achievements of those who have made an impact on American history and culture, the Portrait Gallery displays likenesses of the people who have shaped the United States.

The National Portrait Gallery is the only museum of its kind in the United States to reflect the connections among American history, biography, and art.

Portraiture is the emblematic art for a society that holds out the promise, if not always the perfect reality, of individual self-advancement and achievement.
