Medium - Digital, originally printmaking
Material(s) - Light, originally on paper
Aesthetic qualities - The caption makes the beauty of this ad sublime as one wants to read the comic to fully get the message
Subject matter - The image is about how Pep vitamins can help a women sustain energy to work harder.
Composition - The focal point is the husband holding his wife while talking to her
Formal elements -The lines and form are 2 dimensional. There is also a negative area all in the tan. Everything is in this black/whit/tan tone making the image toned down and duller.
Gesture - The couple in the center look very happy, giving the tone of the ad a happier tone.
Lighting - From the center to the edges, the color goes from light to dark
Dimension - The dimension is only around 11" as I am looking at it from my laptop screen
Location - On my laptop.
Display - On my laptop.
As this is from the 1950s, this ad would fit the cultural norm. The image to me is trying to tell women across America that if you don't take these vitamins, ultimately, your husband won't truly love you.
