About this clipart
The black-and-white caricature shows an elderly woman draped in a white headscarf, her face etched with sorrow as she lifts her sleeve to reveal “1948” carved into her forearm, dripping blood. Embedded in her garment is the Palestinian flag-green, white, black, and red-signifying national identity amid grief. The artwork, signed “Lahif 2012 / KoperMundi,” uses stark symbolism to convey intergenerational trauma and remembrance of the Nakba.
This image is commonly used in educational, journalistic, and activist contexts discussing the 1948 Palestinian exodus (Nakba), especially around commemorations like May 15. It serves users seeking visual narratives on historical injustice, refugee rights, or decolonial memory-often appearing on human rights websites, digital archives, or social media campaigns.
