The first cameras were called "camera obscuras" and were used by artists to help paint landscapes.
A camera obscura is a sealed dark room with a pinhole (later a lense was used) to admit light. The artist set up his canvas on the opposite wall, where an upside down image of what was outside formed. The artist then painted on the image.
Once a landscape was painted on the canvas, sometimes the artist used it as the background for a portrait of a client done in the usual sitting, by overpainting.
