What is "imagery"?
Imagery is a literary device that uses vivid and descriptive language to create mental pictures for the reader. It appeals to the senses, sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell, to help the reader imagine the scene, character, or setting being described. For example, saying "The golden sunset bathed the mountains in a warm, amber glow" uses imagery to help the reader visualize the scene and feel the warmth of the sunset. Imagery enhances the reader's experience by making the descriptions more vivid and immersive.
