Even modern historians have their own perspectives which can influence how they interpret the past. When it comes to war, these differences are shown in full force. War creates an \u201cus vs. them\u201d mentality, and the art that arises from it seems to justify the concept in people\u2019s minds. People want to add glory to their nations, so they\u2019ll paint their victories, and blissfully ignore their losses. Analyzing art from all perspectives is important to gain a full picture of the event, what truly happened. Art is a powerful medium, and it can skew perspectives when we don\u2019t consider every side. Through wars such as the American Revolution, The Civil War, World War II, The Vietnam War, and the Cold War, \u201cWartime Perspectives\u201d aims to bring all viewpoints to the forefront and synthesize them, so we can finally come together as a global community.
