Copyright restrictions on the Time Cover Collection and many portraits created after 1920 prohibit their being made available without prior written permission from the copyright holder.
The National Portrait Gallery will make every effort to inform applicants of copyrights and other restrictions that may apply to the works of art being reproduced. However, it cannot warrant that all photographic materials furnished may be freely reproduced in the absence of such notification. Institutions or individuals may claim ownership and control of copyright or reproduction rights of certain works of art.
It is the responsibility of those intending to publish photographic materials furnished by the National Portrait Gallery to ascertain what claims there may be and to assume the responsibility of compliance with the pertinent copyright restrictions.
