About the Item
An intense and powerful study of five undernourished and perhaps starving African children partly superimposed and partly integrated into the silhouette of the African continent. The artist employs a technique that enables the red-orange colors to literally show the African continent bleeding. Signed lower right and inscribed on verso. Most likely for a newsstand magazine illustration of famine and poverty in Africa. Unframed
