Excerpt from Works of Art in the United States Capitol Building: Including Biographies of the Artists For the purpose of preserving in convenient form historical data relating to the artists whose works have been given a place in the United States Capitol, this compilation has been prepared. So far as possible the biographies included have been obtained from the artists represented or from their relatives. In instances where information has not been obtainable from such sources, it has been secured from various art publications, biographies found in other works, from the records in the Capitol, and from statements of persons having a personal acquaintance with the artists represented. In no instance has a comparative estimate of the relative standing of the artists been attempted. Such comparison belongs to the purposes of art criticism. A subject so largely dependent upon personal opinion is not properly included in the intent of this compilation. It may not, however, be out of place to make some reference to the works of art in the United States Capitol. The collection includes portraits by John Singleton Copley, Benjamin West, Gilbert Stuart, Chester Harding, Charles Willson Peale, Thomas Sully, Rembrandt Peale, John Vanderlyn, Ary Scheffer, John Neagle, and John Singer Sargent. Among historical painters are works by John Trumbull, John Vanderlyn, Robert W. Weir, W. H. Powell, J. G. Chapman, Seth Eastman, James Walker, and A. G. Heaton. Landscape painters are represented by examples of the work of Bierstadt and Moran; allegorical and decorative painters by works of Constantino Brumidi, Emanuel Leutze, and Filippo Costaggini.

The United States Capitol is a national cultural icon, and among the most visually recognized seats of government in the world. The past quarter century has witnessed an explosion of scholarly interest in the art and architectural history of the Capitol. The emergence of the historic preservation movement and the maturation of the discipline of art conservation have refocused attention on the Capitol as the American "temple of liberty." Major restoration and conservation projects have made possible a better understanding and appreciation of the building and its decoration. The United States Capitol: Designing and Decorating a National Icon is a product of this revival of scholarly interest. The book combines the papers from the U.S. Capitol Historical Society's first two conferences dedicated to the visual history and appreciation of this most significant of public buildings in the United States. The first six papers in the collection focus on the roles of the architects of the Capitol from the contentious and delay-ridden first decade of construction through the twentieth-century expansion and modernization. The six essays in the book's second section examine a variety of topics relating to the Capitol's artistic decoration, including the origins of Statuary Hall, the mural Westward Ho! and other paintings and artistic embellishments.
