Portraits

Portraits are artistic representations of a person, typically depicting their face and sometimes their upper body, with the aim of capturing their likeness, character, and personality. Portraits can take many different forms, including paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures, and even digital images. They have been used for centuries as a way of commemorating individuals, celebrating their achievements, and capturing their unique qualities for posterity. Portraits can be commissioned by individuals, families, institutions, or governments, and can be created for a variety of purposes, including personal, social, historical, or political reasons.
