In "One Spring", artist Yad Vashem depicts a concentration camp framed by barbed wire.
The artists depict a concentration camp framed by barbed wire. A bright yellow butterfly sits on one of the wires, providing a sharp contrast to the imagery behind it. Amongst the brutal reality imprisoned Jews were faced with, hope and courage was also embraced. Karl Bodek and Kurt Low created postcards with hopeful message, and distributed them throughout the ghetto and to the outside world.
