What it is
A 1922 colour lithograph by D. Moor, 105 by 71 cm. Its text says the churches' finery, silver and gold, was gathered kopeck by kopeck from the peasants, and all of it must go to the peasants dying of hunger.
Why it matters
It belongs to the 1922 campaign to take church valuables for famine relief, which Moor illustrated in several sheets.
What to notice
The verse is addressed to the clergy directly: why do you stand in a black camp?
Famine relief argued as repayment.
