List all graphic image files with find? [closed]

There are many types of graphic images in this huge archive such as .jpg, .gif, .png, etc. I don’t know all the types. Is there a way with ‘find’ to be able to have it list all the graphic images regardless of their dot extension name? Thanks!

Answer

This should do the trick

find . -name '*' -exec file {} ; | grep -o -P '^.+: w+ image'

example output:
