A render is a '''realistic or semi-realistic view of the asset''' that portrays texture, light, shadow, and form. It can be painted (matte painting) or built up by integrating real textures from photos (photobashing) or a mix of both. A finished render has little to no lineart.

Other than simply being cool to look at, the point of a render is to display the materials (e.g glass, fur, leather etc), and how the various shapes and orthographic views of the asset fits together to provide a realistic reference for the 3D artist. That's why most renders are done in perspective, in a 3/4 view (the view that's halfway between side view and front view).
