Picturing the Process: Portraiture through the Lens

Since its invention in 1839, the unique power of photography has been utilized to record the physical world and appearances.

This exhibition includes photographic works ranging in date from the mid-19th to the early 21st centuries, seen through works from innovators of the medium, both famous and unknown, including William Henry Fox Talbot, Arnold Newman and Loretta Lux.
