Abstract

The article considers the stylistic devices used for the portrait description of the character of the artwork. It is necessary to emphasize that stylistic devices play quite an important role in creating the artistic image of the character. At the same time, stylistic devices mainly emphasize not only the specific features of the exterior, but also various aspects of the visual impression, while bringing to the forefront the features of the drawing image that seem important to the author for one reason or another. And, here, the emotional characteristic of the portrait described is becoming significant, and the impression that the image formed by the author can make. Stylistic devices are an important line element of the portrait description. The process of creating a portrait image of the character uses all the existing stylistic devices that are used in the English language system. The most used stylistic devices are metaphor, epithet, comparison, metonymy and others.
