Description:
The term image is used extensively in visual art and visual science, but its application has often been so catholic as to be counterproductive. Images proliferate in our environment and in our language. One of the attractions of the term is its appeal to the spatial dimension both in pictures and in their internal representations, as well as in describing them verbally. However, there is no consensus concerning the definition of an image. In fact, its meaning is typically treated as self-evident. (...) Images in art refer, in the first instance, to the marks made on a surface. The term image is also used to convey the impact that the pictorial image has on the viewer: this impact can refer to its allusory three-dimensionality (which I refer to as the graphical image). Many graphical examples of visual allusions will be presented. (N.W.)
