If the sentence is to describe the picture, then "about each picture".

NB you only need a capital letter for the first word in a sentence or for proper names.

Say:
I want to know if I wrote the sentence correctly:
Students will write a sentence for each picture or about each picture.
Which sentence should be used here?
I think it should be about. Example:
Look at the picture, and write a sentence about the picture.
