Résumé	Multiple case-based visual analysis is a qualitative design that systematically examines visual materials — photographs, drawings, maps, video stills, or image-rich documents — across two or more purposefully selected cases. By combining Robert Stake's multiple case study logic with visual analysis frameworks, it enables researchers to identify both case-specific visual meanings and cross-case patterns, producing richer comparative insights than either method yields alone.	Comparative case study is a qualitative research design in which two or more bounded cases are studied in depth and then systematically compared to identify similarities, differences, and patterns across contexts. Rooted in Yin's replication logic and Stake's multiple case framework, it is particularly suited to questions that ask how or why a phenomenon unfolds differently — or similarly — across distinct settings, populations, or time periods.
