#hwa3 #onesmalldetail The facial characteristic and his clothing are interesting. The man in the painting is an African American(implying racial issue?), and the headband gives me a street vibe. And I don't know why the decorative pattern reminded there.

#hwa3 #onesmalldetail if you look closely at the painting, you can see these small sperm cells. This is important because it ties into the painting being a critique piece. In this case, it’s symbolizing masculinity and its prevalence in history, particularly regarding war.

#hwa3 #onesmalldetail A small detail that I noticed in Wiley's painting that people overlook but I think matters is on the rock, a message is imprinted. I noticed in the original painting, no messages are imprinted. This one says "Williams Bonaparte" and I think its interesting to note this differen

#hwa3 #onesmalldetail The decorative print that is in the background layers very poorly over the actual painting, like one emblem is just entirely detached from the background and on top of the rocks. I believe this disjointedness is important.

The man is wearing camouflage pattern cloths, but horses are a symbol of medieval or pre-modern features. This mismatch might mean something. And the pose and the point of view are identical to Napoleon Crossing the Alps. #hwa3 #onesmalldetail

#hwa3 about the Wiley's painting the small detail is; the painting is in the frame. Where the louis's painting is not. I think that this is matters because is the frame is not there, we can say that the person is not have does too much of the work in their life. #onesmalldetail

One small detail people might overlook is the gold pattern on the red background. It may seem decorative, but I think these colors make the painting feel more energetic and alive. #hwa3 #onesmalldetail

One small detail that may be overlooked is any of the words engraved on the stones. I didn't really notice them until you pointed them out because the background popped more. Looking back, there seem to be additional words that aren't on the original. It is likely symbolic #hwa3 #onesmalldetail

the timberland boots LOL. maybe its supposed to represent a more modern look to the paitning? #hwa3 #onesmalldetail

#hwa3 #onesmalldetail I think one small (maybe not so small) detail is the cape that wraps around the horse because it highlights the the horse’s armor. The armor plays a huge role within the painting

#hwa3 #onesmalldetail the names engraved on the stones are of famous dictators, except for williams. is it meant, like the unnamed individual in the painting, to symbolize an "ordinary" black man taking his recognition alongside these figures in resistance to history's selective attention?

I think one small detail is the horse NOT changing from the original to the modified version. I think this holds a lot of weight because its trying to send a message, maybe one like "we have the same level of influence as you do" or something related to the power hes holding. #onesmalldetail #hwa3
