Footnote
The artist's inscription verso reads:
'There are often quiet moments in war . . . moments when the action stops or there is a deceptive peace. I shot this picture on my first trip to Africa, to Darfur in August 2004, for The New York Times. We drove around the desert for almost a week, braving summer heat, lack of water, sandstorms and war, people were fleeing for their lives. It ended up the cover of my first photo book.'
