This is a book I came across during my research about portraiture I was interested in the front cover which made me want to book it out and look further into it. The book covers the 20th Century including paintings, sculptures documents and photographs. He explores Western art and its changes in the nature of the individual society. Richard looks into the connections between the subject matter of the portraits and the viewers response.
I found looking through this book quite useful as it made me think about paintings as well as photographs and how portraiture has evolved to fit a ever-changing society.
