The Library of Congress invites you to explore history visually by
looking at interesting photos from our collections. Please add tags
and comments, too! More words are needed to help more people find and
use these pictures.
The Library's Prints and Photographs Division houses some 14 million
items, ranging from historical photographs and architectural drawings
to advertising labels and posters from all over the world. You can
find more than one million pictures among the digitized collections
in the Prints and Photographs Online Catalog at the Library of
Congress Web site. You might also enjoy the special presentations of
photos also appear in American Memory and Exhibitions.
