Image Rhetoric

Published by shorewoodbickeboeller at 10:00 pm under Uncategorized

The picture i chose was of a wood printed carving done by a German. The picture was of two angels carrying a head of Jesus. This is was the carving looked like at first glanced but on further reconsideration one can see that it is not Jesus’ head but a cloth with the outline of his face on it. Further more when we look at the history we see that the face is said to be to face of the artist who made it. The artist seems to now aspire to be Jesus. the angels hold it aloft looking at it and one looking away they dont know what to do with the piece of clothe with Jesus on it.
