Suspended between likeness and strangeness, portraiture can identify an individual only at the moment of its advancement and withdrawal. Examining 36 portraits across two millennia, Nancy shows how, despite photograph's ubiquity, the forms of appearing that define the portrait continue to mark the bodies and representations that dominate our world.
