Alt Text

A child's pencil drawing on a worn, creased sheet of white paper that appears to have gone through several revisions, as mostly-erased figures and shapes can still be seen. The remaining illustrations include two human figures who are holding and firing gun, a skinny house with a pointed roof, two people and a smaller figure, possibly a child, standing under a tree, and a third gunman riding a camel. A couple sentences written in Arabic are seen at the top of the page.
