View: The first artist supported the tea party. He just showed the Tea Party from a colonist standpoint. The first was a candid picture of the Tea Party. It depicted the Colonists and Native Americans throwing tea off British trade ships. It only had colonists celebrating and Native Americans throwing tea off. There was no British or antagonizing image in the painting.
 * Compare || Contrast ||
 * * The colonists look pleased with what they did.
 * They threw tea off British trade ships.
 * Both were looking as though the colonists did what they wanted to.
 * || * The second picture was a political cartoon. The first was a lot more candid
 * The first showed Native Americans helping. The second was all colonists.
 * The first showed no facial expressions the second created an antagonist and protagonist
 * The first did not show British losing at that time. The second showed the excise man representing what happened to the British. ||

The second didn't like the Tea party. He created a colonist antagonizing cartoon. He showed the British were the innocent victims being harassed while the colonists turned everything upside down. They embarrased the British by tar and feather and, the liberty tree represented their free will.
