profile view
Portrait from sideways
A profile view shows something from the side rather than the front—typically a face or head seen from a 90-degree angle, displaying the outline of forehead, nose, lips, and chin: The portrait captured her profile view.
The term extends to any side-angle depiction: architectural drawings, vehicle silhouettes, or medical imaging.
Mugshots traditionally include both a frontal shot and a profile view.
