'the picture' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'prudence has the ability to see' is the wordplay.
'prudence has' becomes 'fore' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'the ability to see' becomes 'sight' (I've seen this in another clue).
'fore'+'sight'='FORESIGHT'

'into' acts as a link.
