An illustration is a visual representation or depiction created to accompany, clarify, or enhance a written text, concept, or idea. It can take many forms, including drawings, paintings, digital art, or mixed media, and is often used in books, magazines, advertisements, and other media. Illustrations serve various purposes, such as telling a story, conveying a mood, explaining complex information, or simply adding an artistic element to a design. The style of an illustration can range from realistic to abstract, and it may be detailed or simplified depending on its intended use. An illustration not only complements the content it accompanies but also engages the viewer’s imagination, often providing a deeper understanding of the subject matter through its visual expression.
