这篇文章认为,艺术品的意义大多来自隐喻,尽管我们并不总是认识到它们是隐喻。这一论点借鉴了莱考夫和约翰逊的工作,他们对一般意义上的隐喻(尤其是语言中的隐喻)提出了类似的主张。它分析了视觉隐喻的概念,给出了一些插图,并声称,相反的语言隐喻,可以有一个以上的视觉隐喻(“混合隐喻”)活跃在一个视觉图像和视觉隐喻可以解释在两个方向。垂直性是视觉图像中的一个基本隐喻。
This article argues that much of the meaning of artworks comes through metaphors, though we do not always recognise them as such. The argument draws on the work of Lakoff & Johnson, who assert a similar claim about metaphors in general (especially in language). It analyses the notion of a visual metaphor, gives a number of illustrations and claims that, contrary to linguistic metaphors, there can usefully be more than one visual metaphor (‘mixed metaphors’) active in a visual image and that visual metaphors can be interpreted in both directions. Verticality is presented as one basic metaphor in visual images.
