"Kriegszeit in Holland" is a work by Hans Heinemann, dating from the period of World War II. The artwork is a book cover, crafted from woven fabric in a simple, yet effective design. It features a muted palette of beige and brown, the stripes suggesting a sense of order, even amidst the chaos of wartime. The worn leather strap adds a touch of utilitarian realism, hinting at the album's purpose as a personal record. The work is a poignant reminder of the impact of conflict on daily life, captured in the tangible object of a humble book.
