Motivation
editWhile we do have a property for schematics (schematic (P5555)), in several cases there are informative scientific illustrations that are not schematic, but rather detailed representations of a particular subject.
For some cases where a photo is available (e.g. spur-thighed tortoise (Q504549)), the use of image (P18) for the illustration would be disputable, justifying the need of a more specific property.
