The photo is actually part of an ongoing art project.
Chances are you've seen this very very viral photo of what was purported to a little boy from Syria sleeping between the graves of his parents. Well, it was staged.
The photo was taken by photographer Abdel Aziz Al-Atibi. The boy in the photo is his nephew and it was taken for a conceptual art project that Al-Taibi was working on.
The image was taken out of context, most likely by english-speaking users where it quickly gained momentum before it hit the front page of Reddit Thursday night. It's been viewed over a million times on Imgur.
