- How is symmetry used? What effect does it have? Everything is in line and Hitler is set in the middle with equal amounts of people on either sides of him
- What effect does this picture being in black and white have? The difference in colour of Hitler and his soldiers and the white public show the contrast of power and hierarchy between the public and the soldiers. It shows the public looking up to the soldiers for salvation.
