Portrait Salon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Portrait Salon is a competition that aims to show the best of the rejected photographs from the juried Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize. A judge is usually invited to make the selection and the work is shown in a number of exhibitions and in an accompanying catalogue.[1][2][3] It was founded in 2011 by Carole Evans and James O Jenkins.[3]

The portrait photography competition took place in 2011,[3] 2012,[2][1] 2013,[4] 2014,[5][6] 2015,[7][8] 2016,[9] 2017,[10][11] 2018 (when it also accepted rejections from the Portrait of Britain competition),[12] and 2019.[13][14]
