illustration

artwork that helps make something clear or attractive showing by example an item of information that is typical of a class or group

"this patient provides a typical example of the syndrome"

"there is an example on page 10" a visual representation (a picture or diagram) that is used make some subject more pleasing or easier to understand

An Illustration is a visualisation such as drawing, painting, photograph or other work of art that stresses subject more than form. The aim of an Illustration is to elucidate or decorate a story, poem or piece of textual information (such as a newspaper article) by providing a visual representation of something described in the text.Illustrations can be used to display a wide range of subject matter such as:

giving faces to characters in a story;

displaying a number of examples of an item described in an academic textbook (e.g. A Typology);

visualising step-wise sets of instructions in a technical manual.The term 'Illustration' can also be used in a non-visual sense i.e. "give an example to ''Illustrate'' the point you are trying to make".
