Trends of Creative Effort in the United States
Panel 4- http://fog.ccsf.cc.ca.us/~jcarpent/
In Panel Four, Rivera immerses the viewer with many representations of Hitler at the bottom of the panel which are mostly painted in black and white. Hitler, which is a representation of danger, seems to spread all throughout this panel. This panel serves as a contrast for the struggles between two opposing poles which are that of a libertarian government and that of the Americas. Rivera also contains images of Stalin, Hitler, and Mussolini. In this panel Stalin is shown holding a murder weapon. The panel places most of its focus on the concept that there is a clear difference between the heritage of liberty in America and that of totalitarian dictatorships.
