Proverb:
Proverb: "A
picture is worth a thousand words"
Meaning:
This is an English idiom. It refers to the idea that a
complex idea can be conveyed with
just a single still image or that an image of
a subject conveys its meaning or essence more
effectively than a description
does.
History / Interesting Fact:
One of the
earliest known references to the expression is from a 1911 newspaper article in
which newspaper editor Arthur Brisbane, speaking about journalism and
publicity, says “Use a picture. It’s worth a thousand words.”
