Franse krijgsgevangenen Possibly 1940 - 1946

"Franse krijgsgevangenen" is a black and white photograph by an anonymous artist that depicts French prisoners of war sitting and lying on the ground. Taken sometime between 1940 and 1946, the image shows the somber reality of the war, as captured soldiers are seen in a defeated state in a French town square. The photo is held in the Rijksmuseum and measures 5.5 cm in height and 7 cm in width. This photo provides a poignant glimpse into the human cost of World War II.
