Comment (by sharonaustin):

 As I understand it then, there are "two" functions that require attention:
 1. The link
 2. The description

 Is it possible to handle the "link" component by adding aria-label in
 conjunction with handling the "description" by adding aria-describedby?

 e.g.  array('aria-label' => "link to home" , 'aria-describedby' =>
 "$image-description" );

 Source I consulted on use of aria-label versus aria-labeledby:
