'''Vignette''' (French:vignette, Spanish:viñeta), this word comes from old [[French]], a diminutive of vigne, "vineyard". It originally was referred to a decorative border in a [[book]] in the form of vine tendrils. At present in graphic design, it is a decorative design or small illustration or picture, usually used in books to separate sections or chapters; also in [[photography]], a photograph whose edges shade off gradually.
