Etymology: "Imagers" is the plural of "imager", a noun for a person who makes images. The singular entered English in Middle English as "ymageour", borrowed from Old French "imageor", a maker of images, built from "image" with the agent suffix "-er". The pattern is the same one behind words like "baker" or "builder": a worker is named after the thing they produce, so the image-maker is simply the person who makes images.

Synonyms: depictors, illustrators, portrayers, renderers, designers
