New Holocaust Photos of Ghetto Life
The worlds largest collection of holocaust photos from a single photographer... Henryk Ross, the official photographer of the German supervised Jewish Council, captured images of the day to day suffering of ghetto life as well as photos of the ghetto "elite" that project an image of a happy content life in the ghettos. These photos are totally saccrine to the background of what we now know about the holocaust. It's really disturbing. The images are on display in New York at the National Portrait Gallery.
