unverbindliche Visualisierung For illustrative purposes only. Explanation: It means that the images may not accurately depict an object. Some details may be simplified or omitted, scale may be exaggerated, etc. cp: German source: http://www.nova-liegenschaften.de/files/11019_cardinalplatz_... cp. English source: (Images) for illustrative purposes only. http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/threads/68399-For-Illustra... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs (2014-08-27 15:37:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The sentence "Pictures for illustrative purposes" is not restricted to architectural drawings etc.! You will also find it also in magazine articles as caption under photos depicting real (albeit not unidentified) people: http://www.hoteliermiddleeast.com/17711-abu-dhabi-hotel-firm... http://www.arabianbusiness.com/three-uae-women-attacked-with... With these examples in mind, the "tourist brochure" context begins to make more sense! |
