English: The Relief Portraits of Lawgivers portray historical figures noted for their work in establishing the principles that underlie American law. The 23 marble relief portraits over the gallery doors of the House Chamber in the U.S. Capitol depict persons noted for their work in establishing the principles that underlie American law. They were installed when the chamber was remodeled in 1949-1950. Created in bas relief of white Vermont marble by seven different sculptors, the plaques each measure 28 inches in diameter (Architect of the Capitol).
