This is Machiavelli
He wrote a book called The Prince
In the book, he tells rulers how to maintain stability and hold power
Many rulers have followed his agenda
Now it's common to refer to the devil as 'Old Nick'
Machiavelli's first name: Niccolo
Below you'll find a vector image of Machiavelli, I created. Move the transparent images, below, over this image of Machiavelli to transform his face into another person. Can you guess the people I've turned him into?
Well, you probably guessed it right: Napoleon Bonaparte, Adolf Hitler, and Joseph Stalin.
These despots all learned from Machiavelli and utilized some of his principles in their rule. Napoleon wrote extensive notes about The Prince. Hitler was affected by Mussolini, who read and followed Machiavelli's The Prince. And Stalin kept a copy of The Prince on his nightstand.
For this project, I created a framed image of Machiavelli with transferable Plexiglas sheets showing the other faces.
