100+ Portraits of Iconic People of All Time

I’m sitting in the Marriott Rivercenter, in San Antonion, arriving yesterday dispite the freakish weather that diverted DFW-destined flights all over the south central U.S.  We sat in north west Arkansas, mingling with more nationalities than UN Day at Kennedy International.  You see, WalMart is just down the road.

It’s 5:00 AM now, and I have so much to do to get ready for today’s Keynote at the Texas Association School Boards summer event (Next week its Fort Worth for the rest of the state), but I couldn’t help but look at every one of these, care of Webdesigner Depot.

Today we bring you a great collection of portraits of the most iconic people throughout history.

Portraits explore the relationship between the subject and the photographer or artist and usually continue to impress the viewer years after they have been created.

The common thread running through all of these portraits is superlative design. Each is a masterpiece in its own right, from the medieval painted portraits right up to the most current photographs.
