In this class, we talked about many different portraits. I learned that silver point portraits which don’t last as long from Jan Van Eyck, Cardinal Niccolo Albergati (?), 1431(?), silverpoint, Dresden: Staatliche Kunstsammlungen DresdenĀ . We learned that these prints can be shown for 3 months and then they have to rest for a few years. Additionally, we talked about facial structure and the way that a sitter can hold their jaw in order to create a certain appearance of wealth and status.
