This unit will consider the production of portraits in a variety of media, principally painting, photography and sculpture, in order to discover, among other things, if and how the medium affects the message. It will also introduce portrait imagery from a wide chronological and geographical range, to investigate the varying functions of portraiture in different cultures.
