Physiognomic Representation

Physiognomic Representation is a formal construct in the study of portraiture that systematically correlates facial features and compositional elements with inferred psychological, moral, or intellectual traits of the subject, thereby distinguishing itself from mere anatomical depiction by asserting a symbolic or typological significance of physiognomy within controlled artistic conventions.
