Illustrations are visual representations that are used to communicate information in a clear and concise manner. They can be created using a variety of mediums, including digital art, photography, and hand-drawn sketches.

Illustrations

The English word Illustrations is an abstract noun with origin in Middle English, when it was spelled illustracioun derived from the Latin word illustratio, composed of the prefix illustr meaning light or shine in Latin, and ratio meaning reason. Over the evolvement of its usage throughout the centuries, the word has evolved from its initial context of being used to signify religious objects in 15th century Middle English, to now being most commonly used to describe artwork, designs or other visual elements, to help explain or emphasize a concept or idea. In terms of morphology, illustrations is an uncountable noun and thus does not usually take a plural form. Its usage is usually contextual, however when used to describe a list or a collection, such as an illustration of fine art works, the indefinite article an is deployed before the word, to make the collection countable. Pragmatically, the word is used to signify the illustrated aspect of a concept or idea, and is most commonly used to describe artwork, design and other visual components, helping to explain or emphasize a concept more deeply.
