A renowned photographer, curator, and critic offers extraordinary insights into the evolution and significance of portrait photography.

When we contemplate a portrait, says Gerry Badger in his introduction to this book, we are asked to contemplate life. We are drawn powerfully to the person depicted. The relational aspect of portraiture comes into sharp focus through this personal selection of photographic portraits from the past two centuries. Here readers will find well-known works by widely recognized photographers together with lesser-known, but no less superb, pictures by lesser- known artists. Tied together with Badger's unique insights, these photographs reference and complement each other in an ongoing conversation about portrait photography's history, perspectives, and concerns.
