  7. Government's Purpose Craig Dietrich
  8. The Double-Headed Eagle Stephen Heim
  9. The rectangular shapes on the boots match the pattern across the figure's chest. The orderly circles and lines within the geometric shape create a controlled pattern that feels awkwardly placed on the boot. Stephen Heim
