- The Elements of Portrayal
- Description
- The Elements of Portrayal provide the foundation by which we engage with works of art. In this video, learn from Artist-Educator Jill Galloway about each of the ten elements and how they all come together to tell the story of a sitter or sitters in a portrait. This classroom resource serves as a cornerstone for discussions about art and history, and will provide you with the tools to ‘read’ any portrait.
