Copley, Paul Revere, 1768

a. Tools in the center; silversmith (spiritually connected to his object)
b. Shows that he's a man that works with his hands (not ashamed of working man status)
c. Looks like a wooden frame of the painting
d. Looks approachable, down to earth, democratizing, anti-aristocratic, Paul Revere came from humble beginnings, icon of democracy, statue of working-class image, looks like he could be pondering after he put his tool down, is there a connection between mind and object? Testament to craftsman as someone who uses his mind for their art
