Description: | image: To the left of the composition stands a portly German infantryman: although his back faces the viewer his grinning
profile is clearly visible. Holding his rifle with fixed bloodied bayonet, he looks down upon a dead French girl lying almost face down,
blood seeping from a wound and into the earth. Before her, lies a small French tricolore which she has obviously been waving. The
background shows the smoking ruins of a French village. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | Execution Weapons Death civilian personnel Military Personnel German invasion of Belgium and France flag / banner / standard looting / destruction Uniforms Children Caricature Atrocities and War Crimes Imperial German Army | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Faivre, Jules Abel | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
