About this work

A black-and-white ink cartoon shows a crowd of gaunt villagers, including children, standing before rows of coffins labeled "Victims of Hunger" and "In Red China" beside open graves. A heavyset official reads from a paper at a microphone beneath a hammer-and-sickle flag, while a smiling man in a cap stands beside him. The caption reads "By government decree every member of the commune is entitled to a private lot," a satirical comment on famine in the commune system. The work is attributed to Edmund Siegfried Valtman and dated 1961.
