Aristotle and The Signing of the Constitution
Aristotle and The Signing of the Constitution
How would Aristotle have responded to this painting?He would probably be very happy to see that a new government is being formed with a whole group of people with multiple inputs. He would have also been very happy that there will be multiple levels to this newly made government.
How many elements of society are represented in this painting?
This painting represents the word of people to form a viable compromise and the formation of a government.
Would Aristotle have believed that this painting depicted a democracy or an oligarchy?
I think he would have believed that is could be an oligarchy because there is only a select group of people shown in the painting. However, it still has the makings of democracy because each opinion is important in decision making.
