She wrote:
The yellow star, a small piece of material that marked the Jews, took on a wide-ranging significance and sealed destinies. Thus I chose to draw an enlarged yellow star such that the canvas could not contain it. Had I the possibility, I would have drawn it the size of a stadium, but that too would not have been enough to encompass the immense horror that the yellow star symbolizes.

The yellow, the shame, the insult, the hate and the wickedness sprout betweenashes and blood.
At your gates Jerusalem
Usually the yellow badge is presented in the foreground and demands the whole attention of the viewer, but here the image of the yellow badge on the poster hides behind the boy and the foreground is dedicated to the multi-cultures of Jerusalem.
IMHO the message is that life goes on.
