From Wikipedia
Imagery is the literary device of using sensory language: figurative language that evokes a mental image or other kinds of vivid sense impressions in the reader's or listener's imagination. Less commonly known by the Greek term enargia, imagery can also be instrumental, in storytelling, for conveying tone, mood, symbolism, and other narrative elements. In order to succeed with imagery, writers use accompanying forms of figurative language to convey a certain message, idea, situation, setting, aesthetic, among others. That way, writers are able to get the readers to understand the ideas being conveyed without the original intent being lost.
