Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to a portrait, generally painted, a print, or other two-dimensional media, of a particular size. It is typically around 36 x 28 inches in size and of a distinctive format that is less than half-length, but includes one or both hands. The name derives from the series of members' portraits painted by Godfrey Kneller ca. 1700-1720 for the dining room of the literary Kit-Cat club in London, where the ceiling was too low to allow half-size portraits and Kneller used this unusual format instead.
