Jill Greenberg culls visual cues from commercial photography and hieratic propaganda for her photographic portraits of toddlers in various states of distress. Using titles such as Grand Old Party, Four More Years, and Misinformation, Greenberg bluntly expresses her anger with the current geopolitical situation. The Truth depicts a child's face as an exaggerated mask of misery. Its large scale, theatrical lighting, and classically stylized composition lend the image a monumental gravitas befitting the portrait of a boy-king. Faith? depicts another child with her hand on her heart and yearning, tear-swollen eyes, though it remains unclear whether the titular faith eludes or comforts her. Overall, End Times succeeds at turning propagandistic strategies against themselves, creating incisive political commentary.
