Streszczenie:Meaning is born from the perpetual interplay between different semiotic systems. The cross-examination of both linguistic and pictorial signs leads to the possible transposition of specific notions from one field onto the other. This paper proposes to show how various epistemological tools used in linguistics can apply to image analysis and vice-versa. It is well known that when examining cleft sentences, visual notions such as that of focus, framing, saliency, foreground and background for instance may prove useful. But concepts that belong to distinct linguistic traditions of thought, such as generative grammar or the French speaker-centred approach, may also be of some help with respect to image analysis. The reason for this lies in the fact that all signs, no matter how formally close to their referents, are but constructs. Their degree of elaborateness mirrors the gradual path from perception towards abstraction and back that the mind consistently travels.
