Design Lesson 5 Learning Task 8

The assignment was to find an example of the Gutenberg flow. I feel this Dove advertisement follows this example. The wording in the top left hand corner is the POA - (Primary Optical Area) and exits at the Terminal Anchor which shows the product. The two dead spots are the top right hand corner which shows the models hair and is unimportant to the product and the bottom left hand corner which shows an unimportant icon to the advertisement.
