(HOLOCAUST).

Zeilsheim, Germany, circa 1945

Text in Hebrew. Designed by Pinchas Schuldenrein.

In commemoration of the Six Million Jews killed by the German Nazis and their accomplices, the image depicts the Hebrew word “Remember” with two burning candles flanking and within a pool of blood the graphic number written large: 6,000,000. Within the digits are scenes of devastation: Destruction of synagogues, humiliation, suffering, death, cremation. At base, in Hebrew script: “For He Who Avenges Blood Remembers Them” (Psalms 9:13).
