Hall of Fame of American Portrait Painting

otivated by a desire to encourage contemporary artists to study the outstanding accomplishments of past generations, The New York Society of Portrait Artists offers here the Society's designations of the leading portrait artists of the American past. Our list includes only artists no longer living.

The Hall of Fame is a work in progress. A limited number of individual pages have been completed -- they are indicated in color. Please watch this space as new pages are added.
