illustrated editions
Books with pictures
Illustrated editions are versions of books that include pictures, drawings, or other visual artwork alongside the text.
The term typically distinguishes these from text-only printings of the same work: I'm looking for an illustrated edition of Alice in Wonderland.
Classic literature, children's books, and collector's volumes commonly appear in illustrated editions, often featuring work by notable artists.
