Peace Sign Buttons
The first button suggests just peace symbol and fancy writing. The second basically says that peace is love not war, also that there is no love in war. The first button says “Peace”. The second button says “Make Love Not War”. They both have a universal peace sign. People wore these buttons in protest to the wars going on in the 60’s. The button on the left is more relaxed with its wavy font, the one on the right is saying you should do this. It is more bold and specified, also, it is stricter and sharp, and clear cut lines.
Symbols of Patriotism--- USA, Great Britain, and France
They are suggesting that patriotism comes in different forms. America has a Bald Eagle with an American Flag. Great Britain has a Bulldog and the national flag. Lastly, France has a motto, Liberte (freedom), Egalite (equality), Fraternite (fraternity/brotherhood). The first image on the left is sharp, with the lines of the flag to the outline of the bird with the black background, it shows how severe and strong the USA is. The eagle represents freedom because birds can go anywhere, they are limitless. Great Britain’s flag in this picture looks like it expands forever. The dog standing atop of it has a proud and big stance. France, the picture to the right might be a little contradictory because there is a security camera in the picture, when the quote contains the word “freedom”.
THESIS: Every nation has something to represent it that stands for the nation's pride. These three images convey this in the manner explained below.
The bald eagle represents to American citizens strength and bravery. In the image the eagle is integrated with the flag signifying that it has become part of the nation. The bulldog looks like it is guarding flag which is a symbol of the nation, discouraging enemies from challenging them. France's motto is showing its strength by being written in stone.
