Holocaust's Image Analysis

The next piece of literature I'll be analysing will be "Fatelessness", wrote by Imre Kertész. And I think that it would be pertinent to analyse an image, so that my ideas about the Holocaust, the historical context of the novel, get a little bit ordered. For that, I'll answer some general questions that probably will help.


1. What do you see in the picture? 
There is a person, probably a man, that's trying to escape through the barbed wire fence.

2. Based on what you havbe observed, make three inferences.
a) Germans took out freedom from people, just because of their race.
b) Human beings don't have limits.
c) Everyone's desire is to be free, but usually one doesn't realize it until you lose it.

3. What questions does this image raise in your mind?
How could it be possible for a person to deprive other ones' freedom and torture them just because of their race?

4. Describe the mood of the image. 
It's a mix between sadness and hopeness. Sadness because the person has been tortured and it makes me remember the Holocaust atrocities; hopeness because you never lose the faith to be free.

5. What information do you already know about the Holocaust?
This happened in the WWII, where Nazis believed they were better than everybody else, and every time this happened in History, it's a disaster for mankind. Jewish were tortured and killed by millions.
