Tzvi Bachrach - Concentration Camp. Gouache on Cardboard
Signed gouache painting on cardboard. Handiwork of professor and historian Tzvi Bachrach [1928-2014].
The painting portrays a prisoner in striped pyjamas staring at a concentration camp, faced by a train stationed at the camp's entrance, the barracks, and the barbed wire. The painting, a reflection of his own personal memories, was created within the first years of his immigration to Israel after the Holocaust [Bacharach immigrated to Israel in 1945 at the age of 18].
Prof. Tzvi Bachrach (1928-2014) was a senior Holocaust and anti-Semitism researcher who personally experienced the hardships of the Holocaust. In January 1942, his family was captured by the Nazis and Bachrach was sent to the Westerbork transit camp, then to the Theresienstadt ghetto, and finally to the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp. He survived the death marches and was liberated by the American army. His parents did not survive, and he was left behind with his only remaining brother.
Size: 18x13 cm. Fine condition.
