    Disney-Pixar's Wall-E Reaction

    The movie opens to an abandoned, trash-ridden Earth over 800 years in the future. The landscape is piled with garbage and a solitary robot, Wall-E, is all that remains, with only his little cockroach friend for company. He works all day, compacting humanity’s discarded rubbish into cubes while squirreling away the keepsakes he finds interesting and watching old Fred Astaire films.

    Money has, is and will continue to be a central part of our lives and play an important role in our daily choices. It essentially defines the existence of human society. Money or the history of money can be illustrated and/or portrayed in many ways; through paintings, drawings, objects like old coins and much more. The image that I have chosen to analyze is a cover drawing for a song that was issued in 1900, in the town of Philadelphia, New York.
