This is an image of pictographs found in caves located in California. The picture is color enhanced so you can see the designs more clearly, but I thought that it added a neat effect to the picture. The function of these drawings were for survival purposes as well as ritual and superstitious purposes as we discussed throughout class. I found it while searching through several pages online and it caught my attention especially because it had a lot of bright colors and I thought it related well to things we have discussed so far. I thought the design was cool since they altered the colors and made it more attractive looking, however it does not contain any sort of typography. It especially relates to us talking about how the history of visual communication began. We talked about cave paintings found in France and i thought it was cool that this one was found in California.

This picture is a great example of what we have been learning. its kind of hard to tell exactly what is being portrayed in the picture. But it is still a great example of visual communication from the past. Very Good.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the color part. I really like how the colors are bright and stand out. Even though the images are really hard to make out I feel like this is a good example of what we are studying in class. I was having a hard time finding an example for mine, but how you found one of ritual and superstitions that relates to class, nice job!
