This is a powerful drawing by an artist at the heart of whose practice lay a deep concern for the oppressed of the world. His vision encompassed the deprived and the destitute not just in his vicinity but across the world—he was as deeply affected by poverty in the Indian subcontinent as he was by the bombings on innocent citizens of Vietnam by the global super powers. A pithy drawing with sharp and bold lines, this charcoal work features what looks like a bird of prey kicking tombstones lining a wasted mountainous region.
