While illustrations frequently form an important part of language teaching materials, either as a means of contextualizing language or stimulating language practice, a neglected area of study seems to be how learners from different cultures perceive such illustrations. The subjects in the research reported here, Vietnamese students of ESL in Britain, were shown illustrations taken from elementary-level course books and were asked simple questions about each. The findings showed that there was frequently a difference between how these illustrations were perceived through 'Vietnamese eyes' and 'Western eyes'. Some implications for the use of illustrations in language-teaching materials are suggested.
