Note:

The exhibition, organized by Marc Pachter, historian of the Gallery, documented foreign visitors to the United States and their reactions to the young country. The exhibition focused on the observations made by travelers from Europe, Latin America, Africa, Asia and Russia. The United States was many things to these visitors: admirable to some and deplorable to others. They expressed their observations in various ways -- speeches, personal letters, diaries, maps, newspaper articles, books, paintings, sketches and even music. The exhibition illustrated the range of their diverse perspectives on a changing America, from the Revolutionary period, through slavery, the Civil War and World War I years. Some non-portrait visual materials were used to complement and supplement a particular subject in the exhibition. Marc Pachter was curator of this exhibition.

Records in this series consist of National Portrait Gallery correspondence, soliciting associative objects from the public; from private collections in the United States and abroad; loan agreements; photographs of women and men who visited the United States; documents and photographs of associative objects through which the visitors told their stories; pamphlets; brochures; excerpts from books and personal letters; newspaper articles; checklists and scripts; exhibition labels; and lists of lenders.
