In 1924 everyone needed food. People begged on streets, knocked on doors, waited for soup and bread in huge municipal shelters. Kollwitz' conscience could not rest. At the request of the International Worker's Relief Organization, she designed Deutschlands Kinder hungern, (Germany's children are starving.)

About Bir Bahadur
Ganesh Pyne (1937 –2013) was an Indian painter born in Kolkata, West Bengal. Pyne is one of the most notable contemporary artists of the Bengal School of Art, who had also developed his own style of "poetic surrealism", fantasy and dark imagery, around the themes of Bengali folklore and mythology. Ganesh Pyne shunned both limelight and art collectors alike, and never held any major exhibition, preferring to show his paintings three at a time. Yet, through the 1980s to the '90s, his work fetched one of the highest priced amongst Indian artists.
