A cry for help from a beggar.a beautiful canvas painting. This is a dual-pronged appeal. First to be assisted –by more endowed persons. Second, probably to be rescued from his lead from whom the people could see looks more of a scoundrel, than a lead. This is also a cry to the West to come to the aid of the Third World countries whose leaders have so impoverished and emasculated that they cannot free themselves from bad leadership/tyranny.
