subject date: 2016-09-01

caption: ANTISEMITISMO lynching of four Jewish teachers by some so-called "collaborationists" among the population of the city of Lviv: when the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was broken, as soon as the Soviet troops left the city already conquered by Poland and now invaded by the Germans, excited by the new arrivals SS the pro-Nazis sink into the tragically customary practice of the pogroom. In four weeks, between June and July, the anti-Semitic fury caused 4000 deaths. In the image, taken from a spontaneous video, one of the victims stripped naked and humiliated tries to cover her breast with dignity. Within a few months, the General Governorate would officially begin the implementation of the "Final Solution". In the sweet expression, the infinite sadness and resignation, the photography historian Ando Gilardi (1921-2012) recognized the anthropometric measurements of Leonardo's Gioconda, creating a bold and shocking juxtaposition that was the symbolic image of the exhibition " Lvov's Mona Lisa - Spontaneous images and texts related to the facts of the extermination "(see # 4301). Photography, part of the exhibition set up in 1995 by the Valle d'Aosta Committee for the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Resistance, Liberation and Autonomy, on the conception and project of Ando Gilardi - National Historical Photo Library, in collaboration with the National Association of Ex Deportates and with the historical Institutes of the Resistance of the Valle d'Aosta and Novara. Lviv (Lvov), 30 June 1941.
