"Cannibal Harem of Charlie Savage" is a 1958 painting by Mort Künstler. The painting depicts a group of indigenous people, including women in traditional garb, preparing to feast on captured men. The scene is likely inspired by the artist's interest in adventure and the exotic, and it captures the wild and often dangerous nature of life in remote parts of the world. Künstler's use of bold colors and dramatic lighting create a sense of excitement and suspense, drawing the viewer into the heart of the action. The painting is a powerful example of the popular genre of "jungle adventure" art that flourished in the mid-20th century, reflecting the public's fascination with the unknown and the allure of the exotic.
