Harmony is created in this piece by the pattern on the pants and shirts of the soldiers. The pattern on their clothing has a repetition and the pattern repeats on each of the soldiers clothing the same. The pattern does not change nor does the direction of the pattern.

Another way of using balancing is the use of the gun, there are only two guns. The guns are opposite from each other which gives the art piece a very symmetrical look.

I feel like he was the most effective because in a way I could see his pain and see the journey in which he went through, through his eyes, posture, and clothing. I do believe what could be improved would be if the wound on the wounded soldier was visible, if it was visible I could not only see the tragedy he went through but also feel his pain. This work of art is compared to others by showing emotion and pain. This sculpture is to represent a historian event and I feel that all work of art comes down to a historian event that has happen to either the artist or worldwide historian event; tourist attack,
