"Starve: A Glimpse into the Tragedies and Triumphs of Humanity" In a world where hunger knows no boundaries, Robert Nixon emerges as a prophet, shedding light on the plight of those forgotten by society. Through his lens, we witness the heart-wrenching scenes captured in "The tragedy of the new poor in Moscow, " an evocative colour litho that exposes the harsh reality faced by many. But it doesn't end there; another striking litho titled "A Terrible Demonstration" reveals Russian convicts willingly starving themselves to protest their dire conditions. Their sacrifice speaks volumes about their desperation for change. Across continents, China experiences its own exodus of hunger depicted vividly in yet another colour litho. The image portrays a nation grappling with starvation's grip, reminding us that this global crisis extends far beyond borders. Meanwhile, amidst Arizona's unforgiving terrain, Redskin survivors brave unimaginable dangers during their quest for sustenance. This captivating United States colour litho showcases their resilience against all odds. Yet not all is despair - engraving captures Cats Home at Battersea offering solace to abandoned felines. In these walls lies hope and compassion amid a world plagued by scarcity. Venturing further eastward, an engraving takes us on "A Visit to the Veddahs or Wild Men of Ceylon. " Here we find tribes fighting against starvation while preserving ancient traditions rooted deep within their souls. Amidst these struggles arises an age-old adage: "Feed a cold and starve a fever. " This colourful lithograph reminds us that even in our personal battles with illness and wellness, nourishment plays an essential role. "I see no changes. . " echoes through time as TOO MUCH PROSPERITY blinds some from acknowledging those who suffer silently due to lack thereof. It serves as a poignant reminder that prosperity must be shared equitably among all members of society.
