Catalog of American Portraits of John Muir in Art and Sculpture

The art and sculpture listed below are the results of a database search on November 6, 1999 of the Catalog of American Portraits, which incorporates American portraiture in museums nationwide, including all National Portrait Gallery objects. A more recent search of the National Portrait Gallery on 5 November 2022 resulted in only six items, showing that sometimes older search engines are better. But if you search on the entire Smithsonian Institution Collections Search, you will find some 92 items across many categories, but most are not portraits.
