Visual rhetoric aims to persuade through non-verbal means. Some common persuasive elements in visual texts include: 1. Imagery and symbolism - Images can represent ideas, values, or concepts in subtle yet powerful ways. 2. Emotive appeals - Visuals often aim to elicit emotions like humor, fear, outrage to engage the audience. 3. Simplicity and clarity - Visual messages need to communicate their point succinctly through a single glance to be effective. 3. Association - Images may reference other concepts, people, or events to leverage established meanings and associations.
