Question:

Different between icon symbol index?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

I think this is a question about Charles Sanders Peirce, and his idea that there are three levels or methods of image representation. The indexical is the most "realist," ie: a photograph, because it requires the thing that is being represented to have been there for the image to be made.
