KL Buchenwald - Drawing by Polish Artist Pawel Holewik
Drawing made after the war by Polish artist Paul Holewik, who was a prisoner in KL Buchenwald and who was also an artist. This drawing has the title "Prisoner's Dream" depicting a camp inmate touching the electrified fence of the concentration camp and receiving a discharge and eventually commiting suicide. We think it's hand made but we are not 100% sure about this. Size: 24cm x 34,5 cm. After doing research about this Polish prisoner, we found a lot of documents about him in German archives that we put on this item just with informative purposes.Paul Holewik (born 10/08/1895) prisoner number 9203 born in Pilgramsdorf. 13. April 1940 he was released from camp. Shipping from our office in Europe.
