An illustration is a visualization such as a 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), traditionally by providing a visual representation of something described in the text.

An illustration is a picture that offers some clarification or insight. Newspapers use illustration to make their stories seem more immediate or more human; magazines use illustration to attract the readers' attention, create an atmosphere, or provide information; textbooks use illustration to add information or clarify the concepts. However, not all illustration are visual: in writing, an illustration is an example, a "verbal picture" that "illustrates" the point the writer is making.
