Coffee table book
From LISWiki
An expensive book, usually of fairly large size (oversize), containing high-quality graphics (pictures, photographs, maps, etc.) and relatively little text. Designed for display in the home, and for casual browsing rather than cover-to-cover reading, coffee table books are marketed on the basis of the visual appeal of their brightly colored dust jackets.
