Glory

 
Playing on the incongruity of active female and passive male, the image preys on male fears of female empowerment during the war: with her rifle dwarfing his ashplant and flame-like strands of hair echoing the frightening destruction on the horizon, the woman's eager militancy overshadows the more traditional image of feminine mourning in the background. The female viewer is thus offered split roles that imply a narrative connection: urge your man to do his duty or mourn for the losses caused by his cowardice.
