The Chicago Manual of Style, like most methods of documentation, requires the researcher to be very detailed and precise. Even with pictures or images, those same strict rules apply. Now remember: Chicago Style can be a little different, because in your research writing/report, the actual citations are shown in the footnotes/endnotes and the bibliography.
I am going to show you a couple of example formats, because I did not know the source of the picture, whether you found it in a book, web, or personal photograph--it does matter, when it comes down to documenting correctly.
