Legal Portraits Online is a project of the Harvard Law School Library to digitise its collection of "over 4000 portrait images of lawyers, jurists, political figures, and legal thinkers dating from the Middle Ages to the late twentieth century". In particular the collection includes images of eighteenth and nineteenth century British and American lawyers such as William Blackstone, Jeremy Bentham, John Marshall, and Joseph Story along with graduates of Harvard College and the Harvard Law School. The images can be searched using Harvard University Libraries' online catalogue of visual materials. Guidance is given on searching the catalogue along with a list of keywords used. Technical and cataloguing information can also be viewed on the site.
