Chinese time-honored brands are the guardian and inheritance of traditional culture and Chinese characteristics, as well as the bridge between culture and business. Through the in-depth investigation of the existing time-honored brands, this paper finds that many traditional time-honored brands have gradually lost their vitality and their living environment is in danger. This paper aims to activate the audience’s image cognition of time-honored brands from the perspective of visual rhetoric, improve the overall brand image of time-honored brands through graphic design, cater to the current design trend, and revitalize time-honored brands in the modern market. The unprecedented prosperity of “image consumption era” and the rise of network media make graphic design become the key communication elements of brand image communication. From the perspective of visual rhetoric, the new turn of visual presentation points out a new design direction for the reconstruction of old brand graphics. The identification, connotation and systematic visual graphics in graphic design are increasingly becoming an important means to construct the intertext of language and image, innovate visual metaphor and activate visual image in the communication of time-honored brand image.
