Garden at Hiroshima

The piece of art I posted was a piece ironically titled " Garden at Hiroshima"
I think it shows the distruction and uselessness of war. The title of the painting is for me the most powerful, because they call it a garden and they show ruins, caused by the Atomic Bomb. There seems to be a mother with children in the middle, and it shows how the war destroyed the lives of innocents. There's a big cloud, however there are rays of light emerging from that cloud, sort of like a battle between light and dark, good and evil. The scattered, broken objects were once owned and loved by people, and are now destroyed.

PS> I think some of the picture might be cut off, prehaps if someone clicked on it a larger image would come up.
