A rhetorical analysis involves the study of how the producer of a
work uses various elements to influence an audience—in the case
of photography, “producer” refers to any or all of the following:
the photographer, the editor, the publisher and, sometimes, the
subject. The “audience” is the viewer. We use these lenses to
closely examine the photograph and understand HOW the image
works and determine what is its rhetorical function.
