The English word PICTURE could have four Russian counterparts:
⏺ рисунок = picture, drawing, illustration
⏺ картина = picture, painting
⏺ картинка = picture, image
⏺ фотография = picture, photo
In order to say “in the picture”, use the preposition НА and the prepositional case.
на фотографии
на картинке
на рисунке
Use these nouns in the accusative case with the transitive verbs:
рисовать /нарисовать картину, картинку, рисунок = to paint, draw
делать /сделать фотографию = to take a picture
