Perhaps I can offer an another alternative to having to choose either illustration or propaganda by looking not at the object but at the mind set of the creator of the thing.

Yes, I will explain.

Dinosaur or ark, it can either be illustration or propaganda depending upon the context and purposes of the artist.

OK. What "other alternative" do you offer? You explanation still still comes down to the image, having to be either propaganda or illustration.

Not so. I’m sorry you can’t get past the superficial image. I really don’t see how I can make it more simple.
Maybe one of the other posters can do better.
