The power of the images is clear to everyone, but their targeted use to manipulate the viewer requires a complex approach to the subject matter, in which social, political, and cultural aspects meet with image-analytical and image-interpreting aspects. In the course, the basics of image design are analyzed against the background of their manipulative potential, and aspects of ethnohistorical image research are outlined and illustrated with examples. In doing so, technical change is also taken into account, which in today's digital age raises the question of the authenticity and truth content of images.
