The Romans did not do portrait paintings. The made wall painting (frescoes) depicting all sort of scenes: nature scenes, scenes of myths, battles, groups of women, animals, etc. The only portraiture was sculptural (busts). The purpose of Roman portraits was the same as the one found in all societies throughout history, including today (expect that now it is done mostly through Photography). It projected the images of important people who commissioned them and preserved them for posterity.. They were politicians and statesmen, politicians, aristocrats or intellectuals.

The key roles of portraiture was the same role through history until the invention of photography. One was to produce the image of a person.

What can portraits tell you?
Traditionally, portraits tell you less about the person or what the artist thinks than what the patron wants to say about the subject (the person painted). Traditional portraits are full of carefully chosen symbolic objects that tell the subject's class (wealth, social position, etc ...) religious piety, philosophies/priorities (do they stand next to a cannon or to a bassinet?), virility (is that a lion in the background?). Aristocratic portraits are often riddled in vanity. Portraits are equal parts art and propaganda. They tell as much about the time (it's attitudes, etc ...) as they do the subject.
