إدراك العلامة البصرية بين البلاغة و السيمياء : مقاربة للجوكاندا الغامضة

Abstract EN

The human tend to memorise each detail in every moment of his experience, and he feels the urge to translate it to others by narrating and describing it, that process is difficult to many people, but it becomes easy when it is pictured.

As a consequence the image turns to be as significant as any other semiotic discourse, so it attracts a lot of recipients.

The image attracts the recipient and try to turn him into a critic in case he got a semiotic sense, this attraction comes from two important things: first; its synchrony that matches with the speed era, second; the deep meaning that it has, which is shown in a limited space.

The image can be analyzed using two ways; by viewing the relation between the different compositions of the image, along with its context that it was painted for, which makes the critic wants to search about its content, the link between its signs and the external circumstances, all of that can be done using the different semiotics methods.

So this is our topic that we will discuss about, employing the Monalisa painting as an example.
