Fun fact, one publisher AMA I read reported that a picture is literally worth one thousand words, ie. (per word rate) * 1000 = estimated price of an illustration. Of course pictures don't mean anything without context, but then, neither do words. It's much easier to understand a complicated layout with a map than with a description of all the possible exits, for example, and neither provides much information if you don't know what room/building is being described.
