I am in love with this piece of art, named Lysistrata, created by Hecto Casanova......Spot on representation of the comedy... We see a frustrated soldier breaking his arrow while a woman stands next to him, seemingly giggling in accomplishment....
Not to fall back into Ms. Rupar's class or anything (which i hated), but notice the feminine curves of the woman under her chin, on her neck and her back; then look at the masculine, rough, jagged edges of the man. Also, notice how the woman holds her head up while the man's head is hanging low? The contrast of victory and defeat is evident..... The fact that it is black and white is also significant. The men and women had extremely opposite viewpoints from each other, thus they saw things in black and white....

I think that this picture is a great representation of what Lysistrata is about. It illustrates the women and the soldier, and how one was affected by the other. Nice Job!
