Depiction of eight human rights, such as the right to life, liberty and security of person.
Fifteen linocuts, each representing an article from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, show artist Meredith Stern's interpretation of these articles.

Originally drafted in 1948 by representatives from across the globe, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights outlines 30 rights that the United Nations General Assembly asserts should be protected worldwide. This declaration has been translated into 500 languages.

In 2017, the Joseph A. Labadie Collection acquired one of only 28 printed sets of Stern's linocuts. To see the complete set of 30 linocuts, request this item from the Joseph A. Labadie Collection (https://myumi.ch/4mJJd) for viewing in the Special Collections Research Center.
