Thesis: This image was used at the front of an online debate regarding marriage and family, demonstrating what would appear to be a stereotypical family, with undercurrents of nostalgia as demonstrated by the color choice and rhetorical pathos the image presents. The context of the image is also important - as it showcases what at one time was the "ideal" family, and uses the ethos of the site the debate was staged at. A third rhetorical appeal, through logic, uses the apparent happiness of its occupants to advocate an interpretation of the image that the ideal family has changed over time.
