APA uses the same basic principles for citing all types of images (pictures, graphs, charts, drawings, maps, etc.).
General Format:
In-Text Citation (Paraphrase):
(Creator's Last Name, year)
In-Text Citation (Direct Quote):
(Creator's Last Name, year, page number)
References:
Creator's Last Name, First Initial. Second Initial. (Year). Title of image: Subtitle. [Online image]. Retrieved from URL
If you are citing an image from a print resource, follow the citation guidelines for a book or journal article.
