Portraiture (Reaktion Books - Essays
in Art and Culture) by Richard
Brilliant
Essential Study Of Western Portraiture
This is the first general and theoretical study devoted entirely to portraiture.
More than a survey of the genre or a history of its reception, Richard
Brilliant probes the connections between the subject-matter of portraits and
the response of the viewer, both to the image itself and to the person it
represents. He shows how portraiture is a phenomenon in Western art that
is especially sensitive to changes in societys perception of the nature of
the individual.
