In fine art, portrait is an independent genre, the purpose of which is to display the visual characteristics of the model. "The portrait depicts the external appearance (and through it the inner world) of a concrete, real person who existed in the past or exists in the present.

Alla prima (from ital. alla prima — "in one sitting") is a kind of oil painting technique (also used in watercolors) that allows you to complete a picture in one session (or in two or more sessions, but in separate parts, each in one layer). An artist using such a technique finishes the image before the paints dry completely, while the method of conducting long-term painting work involves applying paints layer by layer and waiting for the next layer to dry.

The advantage of this technique is that many problems associated with the use of different volumes of oils and resins between layers are leveled, since only one layer is present in the picture. The technique was strengthened in painting with the appearance of Impressionist works[1], but is also used by more "traditional" artists to create preliminary sketches (sub-drawings) of paintings. An example is I. Repin 's sketches for paintings
