I would like to start my image analysis with the picture called “Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima” by Joe Rosenthal, 1945. I feel that this image shows that even in a time of war American soldiers stood together to put up the flag of the United States of America. Our flag is being lifted to what seems to be about 5 men they have taken time out of their battle to lift the flag. Around these men it seems to be a wreckage around them maybe this area was bombed and everything came down as well as the flag. I feel that they are putting up this flag to represent America and their love for the country of the free and the brave.
I went online and found out this picture was taken during World War II; I feel that that fact just makes this picture all the more important and backups what I was saying about Americans undying spirit. World War II was a very hard time for many countries America came out as the big dog from WWI, but when America got involved in the war everything changed. This picture really shows you that even in a trying time Americans will stick together no matter what. …show more content…
The difference in time between these two pictures is 56 years and it is amazing to me that in a span of 56 years the flag is still as it important as it ever was. On September 11th 2001 America was attacked by terrorist America came together during a hard time. This brings me back to the first photo that was taken during World War II you can see 5 men putting up the American flag this resembles the second picture because you can see 4 men putting up the American flag. This is important because you can tell that even in a bad situation Americans will stick together throughout anything and they are willing to put their lives on the line to not only defend our country, but to also defend our
