What is a Portrait?

October 4, 2022 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Portrait of a woman

A portrait is generally defined as an intended likeness of a specific person.  Traditionally, this has meant the physical resemblance of the individual. In this exhibition, we explore a variety of approaches to portraiture, from the traditional to the symbolic, in artwork from our permanent collection.
