The CAP encompasses portraits of American subjects or by American artists, generally limited to one-of-a-kind likenesses such as paintings, sculpture, drawings, miniatures, silhouettes, and daguerreotypes.

National Portrait Gallery collections are included in this portrait database, as well as portraits relating to NPG exhibitions.
