How a picture can talks beyond words ?

Sometimes a picture speaks beauty and has more depth than mere words... pictures are open to interpretation in ways that words aren%26#039;t.
How a picture can talks beyond words ?
words are not sufficient in expressing feelings and emotions of human beings.





Moreover, a picture is more universal than words that are in either one language in the world! because there is no one language that everyone in our wide world understands!

Words are linear and symbolic, and carry only the interpretation of the hearer, so no matter what you say the person listening to you may not understand what you meant to say. Pictures are not linear, they carry a million times more info than words, and the meanings can be transmitted with a lot more accuracy. But believe me, pictures can be totally misunderstood also. No communication is very accurate.





Body language and voice tone is probably the most universal language, but since there are, for instance, places in the world where a up and down head shake means %26#039;no%26#039; and a side to side head shake means %26#039;yes%26#039;, even that isn%26#039;t set in stone.
Reply:words are too simple, words are only created by man to communicate, how can you express something with such a primitive thing?
Reply:A picture speaks directly to the conscious and the subconscious.Such as an inkblot.Not every one sees the same thing when viewing one do to differences in thought process.As for words they often are not interpreted on a subconscious level.
Reply:Words are flat representations of things; they have no inherent meaning, only the meaning we assign them. Letters are little symbols which are strung together to represent words, which are themselves symbols of sounds we make. The sounds are also symbols - sounds we make to imperfectly represent physical things. A word on a page is so far removed from the real things that it represents.








A picture is not so open to interpretation.
