What is an Artistic Device?

Artistic devices are techniques or tools employed by artists, writers, or creators to enhance the aesthetic or expressive qualities of their work.

These devices encompass a wide range of methods, including symbolism, imagery, metaphor, alliteration, foreshadowing, and various other stylistic elements utilized to evoke emotions, convey meaning, or create impact within the artistic piece.

From the given cartoon, we can see Uncle Sam is likened to Moses and how he led the children of Israel from Egypt to the promised land and how Uncle Sam led his people from waves of oppression in old country.
