This is amazing! Thank you.
Honestly, this is one of the most chilling pictures I’ve ever seen, especially colorized.
Four years later in 1944, these two were deported to Auschwitz, but were spared from the Auschwitz Gas Chambers and were sent to Bergen-Belsen, where they died a year later in 1945. Barely five years after this picture was taken these two died of Typhus in presumably the most violent concentration camp the Nazis made.
Pictures like these are both heart warming and depressing. They were so happy before their lives were taken… They could have lived such wonderful and lengthy lives.
“In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.“ This quote makes me sad every time I read it, knowing that the very people she hoped would change resulted in her eventual death.
Wow
