A Face in Time brings together paintings, photographs, sculpture and archival treasures from the Fermanagh County Museum’s collections to explore how we see and understand one another across generations. From painted likenesses to photographic images, each portrait captures more than just a face. These works reveal hints of identity, status, culture and community. Fashions, moods and artistic styles have evolved over the years. These portraits mark historic milestones, introduce significant local figures, and preserve personal moments that might otherwise be lost in time.
