Scope and Contents

Een belangrijk deel van de portretcollectie bestaat uit de schilderijen in de Senaatskamer, de faculteitskamers en andere vertrekken van het Academiegebouw: ook wel aangeduid als de Collectie Icones Leidenses. Dit is het voor publiek meest zichtbare deel van de collectie.

Het meest omvangrijke deel echter, ongeveer 1600 stuks, wordt gevormd door de portretten in de Collectie Bodel Nijenhuis, een groep portretten op papier, verzameld door J.T. Bodel Nijenhuis.

De overige portretten, prenten en tekeningen, zijn afkomstig uit de collectie van het Prentenkabinet, een onderdeel van de Universiteitsbibliotheek.
