It seems that many people's perception of the significance of any given portrait is solely based on the subject, not on the artist.

After all, even the National Portrait Gallery has stated that they include works in their collection based just on the importance of the person depicted, not based at all on the importance of the artist who might have painted it. Harrrumph!
