Describe the feature you'd like
It is possible to add a picture for Shelves or books but not for pages (or chapters). This should be added

Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
Graphical/optical support to find relevant sites. Part of many webpages nowadays, too

Additional context
The picture could be used on the page itself, too. (see: https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/issues/1499)

Going to add my support to this request. I use my Bookstack site for hosting information for the family and that includes recipes.

Scanning the list of recipes by name is ok, but having images for each page / chapter would be incredible helpful. My layout looks like the following:

Shelves -> Shelf -> Book -> Page
Shelves -> Recipes -> Cocktails -> Gimlet

When browsing the list of Cocktails, I would love to have images. Right now its just a wall of text.

I saw some nice and usefull use of Thumbnails images in simular applications. would realy love to see them also in BookStack, I agree it would make the look and feel much more attractable.
I have a sneak preview with examples here #4991
