Researching Images and Obtainings Copies of Images in the Navy Art Collection

Most works in the Navy Art Collection are available for photographic reproduction. To obtain a print, negative, or transparency, contact the Art Collection by phone, mail, or fax to determine which image(s) are desired. After the staff determines the availability of requested images, the patron will be referred to the Curator Branch Photographic Section for ordering information.

The Art Collection staff can only provide limited assistance in researching images by mail, fax, or phone. These requests require a specific subject, such as the name of a ship, person, or battle. For topics requiring extensive research, individuals should make an appointment prior to visiting.

Due to the small staff, "drop-in" research is discouraged. Contact the staff during weekdays office hours to arrange a research appointment. .
