On the Confusion of Word and Image

When a travel guide in a gallery points to one painting, and says that, for example: ”Here we can see the Virgin Mary” he uses, unintentionally, a torrent of metaphors, which hide in each other,and forming a nearly inextricable constellation of knowledge.But the audience understands it without any problem, and recognise the figurine in blue robes as the mother of Jesus.Only the theorist, who wants to understand the situation, stands in puzzlement, because first of all, he wants to explicate these problems, and second, he wants to explain that how can the audience understand the sentence despite these problems.
