True Likeness:
This photograph represents a true likeness because the
external features are a similar match to the physical features of Obama in
reality. Not only are the features in the photo life-like, but they allow
viewers to look at the photo and see an individual with a recognizable face.
There are no abnormal looking physical features that are out of proportion or
are inaccurate. Together, the facial features in this photo reflect that of a
true representation to Barack Obama. As an outside viewer, we can recognize the
person in the photograph as accurate and realistic portrayal and “true
likeness” of Obama.
Not a True Likeness:
This photograph does not represent a true likeness of Barack
Obama for a plethora of reasons. First of all, his external physical features
are not realistic by any means. The color of his skin for example is pink and
green when it should be the colors that represent the skin tone of an African
American individual. The abstract shapes and outline of his face also speaks
for itself in saying that no human looks like that. Even the proportions and
overall shape of his face are inaccurate and do resemble the features of Barack
Obama. When looking closely at this photo, the viewer may even see this photo
as straying away from human characteristics. A photo is supposed to be a
duplicate of someone, however this photo is inaccurate. The details of this
photo also do not portray an accurate representation of Obama in real life.
