As an absurdly broad generalization, words inform and pictures inspire.
(Why, yes, I am aware of thousands of counter-examples.)
Still, my generalization isn't quite as broad as some that have been flying
around.
(Every picture tells a story don't it.)
Every page is a picture. Most of them are pretty boring as pictures, but
they are pictures nevertheless. And the picture is the first thing to hit
the viewer's eyes. With a little luck, that viewer becomes a reader and
meaning flows, but the picture is always first, even on the hundredth page
of an novel with no illustrations.
