| Description | Why does portraiture have a special power to draw our attention? Why do we take it so seriously? Is it because we see another human being portrayed, and we identify our own humanness, our own conception of who we are with the human that we are seeing? But we may forget that although the subject of the portrait is the object of our attention, that the medium of expression through which we experience his or her being is art, and that the subject's humanity is not the only humanity expressed, but there is also that of the artist. |
