This image is written in another language obviously, but its white with black and red colors for the symbols.The function is to tell people what not to do. No smoking, cameras, and bombs are allowed.
I was looking around on google images for a modern pictograph image and I came upon this image.
The style of this image is simple and in another language. I don't know exactly what the wording states, but with the pictographs being so understandable it says no smoking, no taking pictures, and no bombs.
The quality of this artwork is simple, but it gets the point across. It is a modern pictograph, which are elementary type drawings.
What attracted me to this piece would have to be that it is in another language, and the fact that it is in another language and I understand what they are saying drew me to it. I also like that the drawings are very simple, clear, and understandable and yet I know what they are. The colors work well too because red usually means warning so it obviously helps people understand not to do these things. I also like that it says no bombs, and it makes me wonder where exactly the sign is posted at.
This relates to what we have studied because the last class we went into what pictographs really are and I thought this would be a good example of a modern pictograph. Pictographs were created thousands of years ago, and yet we still use them today.
I really like that this picture you picked is in a different language because even though we can't understand that words under it the pictographs clearly demonstrate what it means. It definitely relates well to all we talked about in class.
ReplyDeletei also like the fact that you used a picture in a different language because it shows us that the pictures are a good representation of the words. although we don't understand the words we understand what the pictures are saying. Which is exactly what history was like when words were not developed so pictures had to be used instead.
