Close-up portrait of a survivor of the Buchenwald concentration camp.

Photograph | Photograph Number: 62786
Close-up portrait of a survivor of the Buchenwald concentration camp. The original caption reads, "This Russian inmate of the concentration camp was so weak that he was unable to stand for this picture." [There is a bit of a discrepency with the caption by saying that the survivor was Russian. His uniform has a triangle with a "P" for Pole.]
