About In-Gallery | Teacher Workshop |The Art of Miguel Luciano

Experience portraiture beyond the frame. Our collections present people of remarkable character and achievement. These Americans—artists, politicians, scientists, inventors, activists, and performers—form our national identity. They help us understand who we are and remind us of what we can aspire to be. Get to know us at the National Portrait Gallery. We look forward to sharing the faces and stories of inspiring Americans with you. The mission of the National Portrait Gallery is to tell the story of America by portraying the people who shape the nation’s history, development and culture.
