Faces of Power and Piety: Medieval Portraiture
Companion essay to a 2008 exhibition that explored "portraits in illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages (about A.D. 500-1500)." It notes that, in contrast to modern portraiture, "medieval portraiture was primarily valued for its ability to express an individual's social status, religious convictions, or political position." Accompanied by images of manuscript pages, audio clips, and an exhibition checklist. From the Getty Museum, Los Angeles.
