'picture' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'viz magazine's cutting' is the wordplay.
'viz' becomes 'ie' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'magazine' becomes 'mag' (abbreviation for magazine).
'cutting' is an insertion indicator (some letters cut their way into a word).
'ie' going around 'mag' is 'IMAGE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for image that I've seen before include "Public impression" , "of Kairos with Melchior?" , "sculpture" , "Purplish pigment; pool" , "Metaphor; figure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
