Abstract: Abstract The significance of image as a research tool is revealed in the current poster through archive drawings and analytical hand sketches as two of the image types most commonly encountered in research. Their essentiality is seen respectively as units of visual information and instruments for empirical analysis through the act of drawing. A three-fold role of image is then uncovered: as the object, the instrument and the goal of a research.
