Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This striking image of skull-headed Death as a Nazi soldier was an oft-repeated visual phrase for Szyk. Poland, the first to be cut down by the power of the German scythe was particularly familiar with the Grim Reaper. Hundreds of thousands of Poles, both Gentile and Jewish perished during Hitler’s Reign of Terror.
