Description of CME Course
This course will use work from portrait artist Mark Gilbert to demonstrate how artists’ relationships with people sitting for a portrait can inform how clinicians relate to patients. Portraits are now commonly integrated into health humanities courses. They are often used to help health professions students’ cultivate their observation skills. The focus of this exploration, however, is how portraiture applies to health care ethics and professionalism, specifically to nourishing therapeutic capacity in patient-clinician relationships.
