Representational -
This picture represents the dangers of smoking cigarettes. Represented in this picture are the black lungs on top of the skeleton. The lungs show what really happens to your lungs when smoking. The lungs don't look very appealing and could scare people into not smoking. It relates to the other symbols in this picture because they add to the abstraction of the skeleton which shouldn't have lungs in the first place.
Abstract -
In this picture, there are two abstractions. The first is the skeleton because it appears to be alive. By showing a skeleton smoking, it lessens its appeal. Also, the skeleton has lungs which skeletons don't have. The cigarette is also slightly abstracted because it is bigger than a normal cigarette is, probably to draw attention to it.
Symbol -
The symbol in this picture is the skeleton itself. It represents death. This picture is trying to say that smoking just leads to death. The reason why it symbolizes death is because skeletons aren't alive and are the remains of a once living body.
