Where can I find information about a painting or print I own or have seen that is labeled as being in the National Gallery of Art collection?

Since it opened to the public in 1941, the Gallery has made available paper reproductions of works in the collection, has published reproductions of its collections in many different types of books, and has had a copyist program that allows people to copy our paintings on their own canvases by working in front of the original painting on easels that we provide. It is, therefore, not unusual to come across a paper reproduction, a painting after a reproduction someone has seen in a book, or a painting someone has made as part of our copyist program. Please click on “search” on the home page, then “Search the Collection” to find out more information about the original work of art that has been reproduced.
