While this period saw the emergence of portraiture as a major field of representation in Western art, 'slave' and 'portraiture' as categories appear to be mutually exclusive. On the one hand, the logic of chattel slavery sought to render the slave's body as an instrument for production, as the site of a non-subject. Portraiture, on the contrary, privileged the face as the primary visual matrix for the representation of a distinct individuality. Essays address this apparent paradox of 'slave portraits' from a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives, probing the historical conditions that made the creation of such rare and enigmatic objects possible and exploring their implications for a more complex understanding of power relations under slavery.Slavery in artPortraitsSlaveryAtlantic Ocean RegionHistoryBlack people in artSlavery in art.Portraits.SlaveryHistory.Black people in art.704.9/49306362HIS010000bisacshLugo-Ortiz Agnes I.Rosenthal AngelaUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910790616403321Slave portraiture in the Atlantic world3717694UNINA
