Abstract

This article investigates the role that scientific portraits play in shaping public perceptions of scientists and, by extension, the scientific enterprise. A new category of scientific portrait, termed the “scientist at work,” is introduced and discussed through the lens of Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca’s theories about creating value and presence for an audience.
