Media: India ink on paper
Framed, 36 ¾ inches H x 28 3/8 W

Drawn from one among many photos of children in the ghetto. Frequently they were in ragged clothes, wearing foot coverings made out of tightly wound rags around their feet. One and a half million Jewish children were murdered by the Nazi's and their allies. Tens of thousands of Romany & Sinti children were murdered, and tens of thousands of physically and mentally disabled Protestant and Catholic Austrian and German children were also murdered in the Nazis genocidal campaign of murder and theft.
