The Schusev State Museum of Architecture reveals the secrets
of Moscow’s monuments.
For the project “Discover the Full Story” the creative agency
Saatchi & Saatchi has developed an ad campaign for the
Schusev State Museum of Architecture. The goal of the
campaign is to promote this amazing museum that holds a
collection reflecting the thousand-year architectural heritage of
Russia. Front and center in this project are key historical
buildings that stand as true symbols of the city: the main
building of Moscow State University, Saint Basil’s Cathedral,
and the Bolshoi Theater.
This initiative demonstrates that beneath the facade of every
building lies an entire history. What most people know about
this history is just the tip of the iceberg. The project focuses the
attentions of Muscovites and tourists alike on the history of
Moscow and the city’s architectural heritage, inviting visitors to
the museum to learn the full story of our city’s buildings.
The images for the campaign are widely used in the press, in
outdoor advertising and on stickers in the metro.
How do we analyze Advertisements?
What product or service is being advertised?
Who seems to be the targeted audience?
What is the ad’s primary strategy?
To provide information?
To reinforce the product’s or company’s image?
To appeal to needs and desires?
Does this ad use specific rhetorical strategies such as humor,
understatement, or irony?
What is the relationship between the visual and text in the ad?
What is the ad’s overall visual impression?

6. ( Gooch and Seyler 157)
Graphics: How do we analyze them?
Study Graphics in tandem with the text.
Read the title or heading of the graphic.
Read any notes etc
Study the labels and the information.
Draw conclusions
What does the author accomplish by including these figures?
How are they significant (to the argument)?
( Gooch and Seyler 162)
How do you judge the authority of statistics?
Is the authority an expert in the field?
Is the work current?
Is the individual in possession of credible credentials?
Do other experts generally agree?
( Gooch and Seyler 161)
The Visual Essay
The Visual Rhetorical Analysis assignment asks you to select a
photograph, print advertisement, and/or work of art and analyze
its features to discover a deeper meaning. Just like a written
text, a visual communicates meaning on a deeper level beyond
merely the literal. Your essay will illuminate this meaning
thereby helping your audience understand your interpretation of
the image.
Introduction

7. You will want to describe the image and/or give background to
the visual you choose.
For example:
The Crisis relief is an organization that provides help to Asian
countries in times of crisis. They train volunteers, raise
awareness, and partner with other organizations to better help
those in need. They produced an image that raises awareness
about a present issue. In just black and white, a young
distressed child is in the arms of a motherly figure. Even though
the motherly figure’s face is covered, the emotion of the child’s
pain is very apparent. The background looks unsanitary, as do
the tattered clothes the young boy is wearing. The women’s
body language is very nurturing, even with the pain the boy is
in, the women seems collected. Around them are hands with
thumbs up, along with the text, “Liking isn’t helping” and “Be a
volunteer, Change a life”. This image targets users of social
media through ethos, pathos, and logos to persuade them to
change a life by volunteering.
Thesis statement
In thinking about your thesis statement, you may want to figure
what type of rhetorical devices were used to evoke a response
from the viewer.
An easy suggestion would be to use each paragraph to explain
how logos, pathos, and ethos are used in your image.
Sample thesis statements
The series of photographs effectively invites contemporary
viewers to reconsider their assumptions about the relationship
between humans and the environment. In particular, the

8. photographer’s use of scale, contrast, and composition work
together seamlessly to disrupt viewers’ expectations, thereby
providing an alternative perspective on the current state of our
natural resources.
*Author is explicit about the three points for the body
paragraphs
*Readers can expect to read about all three in order.
Sample thesis statements
On its surface, The Social Network entertains viewers with a
story about the origins of Facebook. Embedded within this
larger narrative, however, is an argument about class relations,
as Fincher’s film utilizes key rhetorical strategies to invite
viewers to share in the critique of college students’ perspectives
on what it means to be successful in the 21st Century.
*Though we know that the focus is on rhetorical strategies, it is
unclear which ones.
*This is an excellent start, but specificity is needed.
Sample Body Paragraph
The rhetorical tool of pathos is a complex one as it relates to
the emotions a human can feel when he/she reads certain words
or sees certain things and sadness or despair is one of the
strongest emotions that can be felt. The characters in the image
are woman and a kid lying unconscious in her arms and this
evokes a keen sense of despair from the viewers as this image
has the power to mirror the relationship between a mother and
her child—one of the most meaningful relationships for a
human being. This image is particularly effective at using the
tool of pathos because of the human ability to empathize—after
viewing the image the audience likely place themselves in the
shoes of the mother or child in order to truly understand the

9. terrible plight of humans in disaster torn countries.
Furthermore, the image caption “liking isn’t helping”
effectively targets the human ability to feel shame as this image
speaks out to the privileged and capable humans of the world in
order to get them to make tangible efforts to help the
underprivileged; it is implied by the caption that sitting in front
of the computer on social media (i.e. Facebook) and
“liking/commenting” on pictures is inherently useless to the
needy as they cannot improve their lives on the basis of the
amount of “likes” their situation receives. According to the
image, every “like” or “share” that a picture receives serves to
only highlight the egregious indolence that modern humans
display in times where action and cooperation is required.
Pitfalls
Do not spend most of your paper describing the ad. Remember,
you must do so in a cursory manner so that your audience
understands what you are referencing, but your purpose is to
explain what strategies the ad employs to evoke a response.
Do not talk about if you disagree or agree. Your purpose is to
explain how the ad does what it does.
