Kruger's Images

The first picture I observed told me that a man's love is like planning out a military battle. Like if a man has a moment of joy it is because he planned it out to be like that. And when he wins he feels like a god. Thats what I view and its seems really weird if the artist wanted it to be viewed like that. It makes men seem like they plan out joy which could be wrong. Joy, whatever it may be, is spontaneous and unexpected. If you expect joy to happen to you, then it really isn't that joyful because you'll know what's going on. So I think this picture is making men look like evil dictator's, but I could be very wrong. The second picture makes perfect sense to me about men or women, depending on who you are. It says to me that the undiscoverable manias of people can become something like science. For example, someone out there has a crazy interest in something like the moon, they become engulfed with the moon by examining every part. They try to find out everything about the moon because they are so curious and interested in it. They become a maniac when it comes to the moon but everyone around him thinks he is crazy. He gets called a maniac for liking the moon so much cause everyone else thinks its just the moo and nothing else. But something happens and the moon becomes scientific because its so how up in the sky and everyone starts thinking outside the box. So now this person, who was called crazy for having a maniac obsession with the moon, is now just as normal because his idea became science. The third picture I agree with slightly. I see that history is a lot about business ventures. Kings killed enemies so that they can get more money for the country. Empires expanded with deadly force to gain more money for the emperor. America became what it is because they didn't want to have to deal with British business that was competing with them. Yet there is also a lot of non-business in history too. So on one half the picture it tells me history is business while the other half says history isn't business
