Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper: the Case of the Overturned Saltcellar

Audience: People interested in the Last Supper, by Leonardo da Vinci and it's restoration, specifically art historians.

WATCO: restoring/cleaning the Last Supper on it's integrity as a painting and on the art history community as a whole.

Enthymeme: Cleaning/restoring the Last Supper has had unfavorable results as concerns the painting and the academic community as a whole because of the doubt and confusion it has revealed in its scholars on accuracy and meaning.

E/L/P: Pathos: There is an appeal to Pathos in the very title,"the case of the overturned saltcellar" hearkens back to murder mysteries and the excitement that they infer. Logos: The research in the argument makes an appeal to logic because it shows that this is something that they didn't just make up. Ethos: There is an appeal made to ethos through the pictures of the Last Supper and various reproductions, the visual to go along with the written lends credibility.

STAR: Sufficient: I believe that the amount of research and logic put into this is sufficient, it's quite substantial.

Goal/Effective?: I think the goal was to convince the audience of their findings and that restorations/cleanings are a dangerous business and I believe they were effective at this.
