Similar in feeling to the images of war-torn women and children by German artist and printmaker Kathe Kollwitz, Kloss' depictions of women whose husbands and sons were lost in battle are solemn reminders of the emotional scars left by loss.
However, the list also includes the names of such international leftist artists as Kathe Kollwitz, William Gropper and John Heartfield, whose work was recycled for publication here and not executed for the book.
Among the artists featured are Judith Leyster, Angelica Kauffmann, Emily Mary Osborn, Camille Claudel, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Georgia O'Keefe, Kathe Kollwitz, Frida Kahlo, Leonora Carrington, Faith Ringgold, and Judy Chicago.
