The present invention discloses an object-based image search system and method, whereby a user may visually specify query objects for retrieving relevant images without using any image-segmenting software tool. The method of the present invention comprises: specifying target feature points from sample images which are displayed in an image query interface and determining logic relationships of the target feature points; utilizing a feature-point checking program to correlate the target feature points with target objects; utilizing a feature-similarity calculating program to find out the images relevant to the target objects via the image feature parameters stored in a feature database; arranging and presenting the relevant images in sequence.
