Portrait, in China's original meaning, is to draw portraits of people. It is the traditional name of figure painting in China. It requires people to be similar to themselves in form and spirit. Simply put, it's called portrait when painting.

Portrait refers to art photography, commonly known as art photo album, and can also refer to photos. But like the original definition, photos strive to achieve the realm of "truth". Therefore, many commercial photos, as well as some superficial, empty and connotative photos, have been seriously retouched for the sake of "flawless appearance". Although they are also called portraits, they have already run counter to the original intention of portraits.
