How do people look at images?

Do you first notice the -
Context?
Emotion?
Layout?
Colour?

When different people view the same image what is the first thing that they will notice about it?

Look at it scientifically or in a more art history based way?
Present it clinically and neat - look at how work is presented in gallery or a scientific collection.

Take a famous image/piece of artwork and ask a variety of people from different backgrounds (artists, photographers, sculptors, scientists, historians, people with absolutley no interest in art whatsoever) and ask them to describe the image.
