Although still theoretical, black holes are accepted by the scientific community as a whole. Not only is the science behind them solid, they show up where predicted and behave as predicted. Of course you can't take a picture of a black hole, that is impossible by the very nature of the object, but we can watch the behavior of objects around (and behind) black holes. This behavior is our "picture" of the 'hole.
