    Interesting look at how self-portraiture has changed over time.
  

*by T***K on Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2014*

The artist's place in, and meaning to, society has changed throughout history and the same is true of self-portraits.  James Hall surveys the changes from the Middle Ages to the present day. His structure is to examine ten themes that fall fairly well into a chronological order. This works nicely and helps make sense of the give and take between the artist and his time (and patrons).  Each chapter illustrates the theme with works of several artists, some well known and others not.  Although not every work Hall describes is illustrated in the book  he gets you to really look at those that are.  In addition to the illustrations there are many quotes from the artists and their contemporaries that help see things in the light of their own time and place. Hall is scholarly without being dry or condescending. The book is well documented and includes a Select Bibliography of newer sources that are probably possible to find.  Thames & Hudson are to be commended for producing  a well made book on nice hefty paper to be pulled off the shelf over a period of years.I received this book compliments of Thames & Hudson through Goodreads.
