An author would include an image and caption in an informational text primarily **to provide a visual for something that the reader may be unfamiliar with**. This helps to enhance understanding by illustrating concepts, data, or ideas that might be difficult to grasp through text alone. While making the page look more interesting can be a secondary benefit, the main purpose is to support the information presented and aid comprehension.
