1904 Worlds Fair

The photographs in this chapter were used at the time to show the people of America, that imperialism was needed in the Philippines. Although, they convinced the American people of this by casting a negative light onto their culture. Making all of the Filipino people something they aren't by using contrasting photographs and by also playing off the insecurities of the American people.

In the buildings that appear in the first 3 photographs, they are all give an impression of greatness, intellect, refinement, and power. In the first photograph, it shows the Palace of Varied Industries. Showing the visitors what has been accomplished technologically in this very civilized society. Both the Palace of Varied Industries and the monument in the plaza are symbols of architectural mastery. In the second photograph, the Palace of Liberal Arts is the most highly decorated of them all. A sense of a very wealthy economy is depicted in this photograph as well. With the motorized vehicle and very upscale appearances of the people in the foreground, it shows that these people have money to go along with their high class culture. In the third photograph, I think the photographer was trying to convey the tranquility and recreational aspects of th


In the seventh picture I think the photographer was trying to portray a very uncouth people. By showing them pictures of women and children not only in very reveling clothing at the time but smoking. Something that certainly wasn't condoned for women at the time, but showing children, adds more of a shocking element to the picture.

In the sixth photograph you not only get a sense of a very primitive culture that the Filipinos had by looking and comparing the building of this picture with the ones previously presented. But you also get the impression that the people that set this exhibit up, wanted the Americans to look at these people as animals almost. You can clearly see people on the other side of the fence looking in on them as if they were in a zoo.

As in the first three photographs, the forth seems to be putting the white man ahead of everyone else in the world. The top of the evolutionary ladder. The two women within the photograph is a contrast and influential reminder to the American people that because they are such a powerful and finely tuned people, that it is necessary for them to "help" the other people of the world to become just like them. A pictorial justificati
