Theophile Alexandre Steinlen - Enfants martyrs

Thrown like a bundle into the corner of a cell, a poor kid is slumped and curled up, and his arms are behind his back with his bruised wrists in handcuffs. He leans to the side, and presses his head against the wall. He is dying of hunger, cold and pain. Near his bare feet, there is an open bowl with its lid next to it.
