In Memoriam: Sacco and Vanzetti

A black and white etching depicting a woman with outstretched arms standing over two sleeping children. The scene is framed within an arched contour, and the background swirls around the figures, suggesting movement or a dreamlike state. There is handwritten text at the bottom of the image.
