Here Portrait refers to any photo that depicts the face and/or adjacent part of the body, or the entire body, whether sharply recognizable ... or artsy, pushing the limits. Here, the face is paramount. Any other body part, by itself, doesn't qualify as a portrait.
This Web Highlight was made possible with a generous grant from the Smithsonian Women's Committee and the cooperation of participating owners. Permission from the owners is required for image reproduction.
