Portraits for Wednesday

I plan on using the above (which I used for my close reading) and the portrait of Vietnam veteran Anthony Wallace described in this article, which was displayed as part of the Brooklyn Historical Society's "In Our Own Words: Portraits of Brooklyn's Vietnam Veterans" exhibition. It incorporates a physical portrait and artifacts such as letters and medals to supplement the focal point, voice recording that utilizes oral history as a form of (self-?)portraiture. For some reference, you can access the audio file from the exhibit here.
