Theme Painting: The dichotomy between luxury and survival
To the left, the rich man is painting his children as they ostentatiously
munch on and are licking ice-cream. And ice-cream being a luxury food. The rich man is painting to show them how cute they look with licking ice-cream. Here i ce-cream is used to complement the cuteness of the children
On the right, the poor child is very hungry. But his father cannot
provide him food. So that they can manage their pangs of hunger, the poor father
is making shapes of food such as cake and bread with sand. This is to console
them with the feel of food when they would not be able to get food they are so hungry
for.
