What aspects of visual art can be likened to poetry?

Does a painting have meter? rhyme and off rhyme?

What about imagery in poetry? Visual art is all imagery so how can that be compared?

Can an image be compared to a type of poem, as though it were like a sonnet or a double dactyl or free verse?

Does the phrase "show don't tell" apply? I think it does but is it more difficult in visual media?
