Use views to better browse your music library.

iTunes lets you look through your music library in various ways so that when you set out to listen, you can follow your instincts of the moment. An artist you haven't listened to for awhile? Use the Artists tab. An album maybe? Use the Albums tab. And use Genres when you're thinking maybe a little R&B, or perhaps Reggae, and so on. All of those views display album art as well as songs. On your computer, the view selections are across the top in the iTunes Library view, just below the player area. On iOS devices they're across the bottom in the Music app. (To access Genres and a Composers view, tap the More, and to add the Composers view to the computer screen, select iTunes General Preferences and check Show Composers in the View section.)
