The first thing I notice when I look at this image is the pink bow tied around the girl’s mouth. This is not a normal spot for a bow to be, and this causes me to look closer at the image. The image portrays a pretty girl who is trying to defy the odds and avoid stereotypes. She is going against the odds by putting the bow around her mouth. A pretty girl like herself should stereotypically wear the bow in her hair. She is trying to show how you do not have to be like everyone else. This is an appeal to logos because it goes against what we consider logical. It is significant that she has the bow around her mouth. This means that she is not free to say what she wants to say. Her freedom of speech has been taken away. People look at her because she is beautiful, but people do not listen. Beauty is more than skin deep. What comes out of her mouth matters also.
It looks to me like she may have taken this picture herself. The angle and the way her shoulders are make me think this. She is trying to show the world that there is more to her than just a pretty face. Her thoughts, words, and actions matter too.
The only colors in the image are the pink of the bow and the blue of her eyes. Everything else is in black and white, and this causes the colors to really stand out. Both colors draw my attention to her natural beauty. A pretty girl like herself should stereotypically wear that pastel pink color. She is trying to show that you do not have to be just like everyone else. The color of the bow is pretty, and she is pretty. These two ideas coincide. The bow represents her pretty face, and it is keeping her voice from being heard.
