Counterpicture

/ˈkaʊntərpɪktʃər/ noun

Definition

A picture or image created to oppose, respond to, or provide contrast to another picture or visual representation.

Etymology

From counter- (against) + picture (from Latin pictura, 'painting' or 'image'). Combines counter- with picture to describe visually opposed artwork.

Kelly Says

Political art often uses counterpictures—when one side creates propaganda posters, the opposing side creates counterpictures with the opposite message using the same artistic style, creating powerful visual debates.
