Acknowledgement of Country
The National Portrait Gallery acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia and recognises the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and to Elders past and present.
We respectfully advise that this site includes works by, images of, names of, voices of and references to deceased people. It may also include images of, or references to, cultural practices and artistic, cultural and intellectual property of First Nations Australians which may be of a sensitive nature.
Cultural sensitivity of works
The National Portrait Gallery has undertaken to ensure that works with specific access conditions are not reproduced in a public context. Should any works or records contain secret, sacred or restricted content which should not be publicly accessible please contact the National Portrait Gallery.
Use of Historic language
We acknowledge that material on this website may contain words, descriptions and terms which are reflective of the period in which a work of art was created, and may be culturally insensitive and not considered appropriate today. These words, descriptions and terms are provided in a historical context only and do not reflect the present attitudes of the Gallery.
