    painting

    From cave paintings to selfies, we all love pictures of


    B
    people. But why are we so interested in looking at faces?

    Nowadays, people love taking selfies, but creating


    pictures of people isn’t new. Artists in the ancient
    civilisations of Egypt, Greece and Rome made lots
    of portraits and some people think that people
    started making portraits even earlier – almost
    30,000 years ago.

    sculpture Before the invention of photography in the 1830s,


    painting, drawing or sculpting a portrait was the only
    C way to show what people looked like. We know what
    MARION DUVALL, Art editor

    kings, queens, and famous people in the past looked


    like because of the portraits in art galleries around the
    world today.

    But portraits show us much more than how someone


    looks. Portraits shows us the personality of the person.
    They can also tell us about a period of history. Portraits
    don’t only tell us about the person in the picture, they
    also tell us about the personality of the artist who
    drawing
    created the picture. Also, portraits make each of us
    think and feel different things and that is why they are
    D so interesting.
