2.18

What every picture, of whatever form, must have in common with reality in order to be able to represent it at all -- rightly or falsely -- is the logical form, that is, the form of reality.

2.181

If the form of representation is the logical form, then the picture is called a logical picture.

2.182

Every picture is also a logical picture. (On the other hand, for example, not every picture is spatial.)
