Fresh New Perspective

"I belong also still to the generation of the eye-witnesses of the 20-century connected with the fate of the Germans. As educating artists feel I forced the experienced whole truth of the history, which is concealed until today if possible, artistically to naturally process themselves and for future generations testify."
- Herbert Smagon


The following images were by a old German artist. It's neat to see the other side of the coin.


1.SS "Crack-babies"


2. WORLD WAR 1939-1945
Young German teenagers as "VOLUNTEERS FOR THE LUFTWAFFE." Children defend their families and homes from the Allied bombers.


3. WORLD WAR 1939-1945
OCCUPATION OF THE CITY ROESSEL IN EAST PRUSSIA ON THE 28.1.1945


4. Left = depiction of the German civilian victims. Right = chancellor laying down a wreath for them, 44 years later.


5. This Soldier is Czechoslovakian - wiping out German children after the war ended.


6. Same deal.


7. Just before the end of WW2. "HUNTERS LUCK". A USAF pilot deliberately strafs. German civilians in Bavaria, Germany on "Hitler birthday", the 20.4.1945.


8. His vision of an atomic world war.
