Definition
A vivid and detailed picture of an individual.
Words describing portraiture-
Person
Mood
Individual
Face
Emotion
Expression
This portrait is of an elderly man and the emotion conveyed from his facial expression is content but in addition, the clearness of the eyes suggests that he is young at heart.
This young child shows youth through the big blue eyes and the clear and smooth skin. Because of these features a sense of innocence is created and conveyed.
This is a different angle of a portrait because it is the back of ones head and the only feature shown are the hair and the head shape. The back of head shows texture and form through the difference in light.
Although this photograph is rather dark, the key features are emphasised and as is form. The main feature you are drawn to is the eyes as they are both dark and light at the same time.
My definition-
a photograph of an individual which portrays emotion.
