Abstract
- The article focuses on contemporary views on children's portraits. Despite the shift in attitude regarding children's portraits, and society's increasing tendency to value a child's freedom of expression and individual personality, many contemporary commissions still specify that the subject pose in their Sunday best, in a formal setting. Many contemporary artists offer alternatives to tradition while retaining enough of a portrait's purpose to suit parents' wishes.
