What is an "illustration"?
Illustration is a drawing or picture added to books, magazines, and other printed materials to help explain or improve the text. Illustrations make complex ideas easier to understand by providing visual context. They can show scenes, characters, or objects mentioned in the text and are often used in educational materials, storybooks, and articles. These images can range from simple line drawings to detailed and colorful artworks, depending on their purpose. Illustrations not only help understanding but also add visual interest to the publication.
