You may want to commemorate a special event such as a wedding, milestone birthday, anniversary or achievement. Traditionally, portraits were painted to record the appearance of the person. Photography had not yet been invented and sculpture was the only other alternative. Portraits also conveyed the power, beauty, wealth, status and occupation of the subject. Earlier, they memorialized the rich, powerful and accomplished. Artists worked on a commission basis. Sometimes they painted the portrait out of affection, respect or admiration for the subject.
