Hunger Knows No Armistice: Near East Relief
M. Leone Bracker (1885-1937) · Near East Relief, 1919
Format
Archival pigment giclée on museum-grade matte art paper, color-managed to the source scan — the flat inks and stone grain intact. The 40×60 is the room-changer.
Size
$39.00
What it is
A colour lithograph M. Leone Bracker drew for Near East Relief in 1919, 98 by 55 cm.
Why it matters
The Armistice of November 1918 ended the fighting, and this sheet of the next year says the hunger went on. It names the campaign headquarters at 937 Woodward Building and Near East Relief at 819 15th Street.
What to notice
A woman and children, cowering in distress.
A ceasefire the hungry never heard.
