Event details: Faces of Power and Piety: Medieval Portraiture
Description
Portraiture in illuminated manuscripts developed from the highly stylized portrayals of the early Middle Ages to the late medieval emergence of recognizable portraits. This exhibition explores both historical portraits of people from the past—including religious figures, authors, and artists—and portraits of living individuals (usually the owners or donors of books). The goal of medieval portraiture was to present a person not at a particular moment in time, but as the subject wished to be remembered through the ages.
