Prisioner no. 40472 of the Auschwitz concentration-extermination camp, identified as Michał Liborski. Other sources point Liborski’s number as 20909, and tell us he was born in Czernice on 14 September 1914, and died on 15 April 1942, thus being younger than 28 years old when these pictures were taken by Wilhelm Brasse. Brasse was ordered by SS staff to photograph the prisoners for their files, taking up to 50,000 identity pictures between 1940 and 1945. Dr. Mengele ordered to take the photographs ‘in three poses: from the front and from each side’, one of them always with the head covered. THE HEARTBREAKING horrors of the Holocaust have been brought into light again thanks to a series of colourised images. Striking shots show Senator Alben W. Barkley, member of a committee investigating Nazi atrocities, looking at a pile of bodies at Buchenwald concentration camp; Jews being executed by German army mobile killing units, the Einsatzgruppen, after they had dug their own graves; and starving children asking for alms in the Warsaw Ghetto. Other horrifying images show thousands of wedding rings the Nazis removed from their victims to salvage the gold, prisoner no.40472 of the Auschwitz concentration camp who was identified as Michal Loborski and members of the 42nd Rainbow Division, 7th US Army uncovering a wagon transporting some of the horrors of Dachau. The original black and white photographs were colourised by Joel Bellviure (17) who lives between Palma, Mallorca and Barcelona, Spain. Joel Bellviure / mediadrumworld.com
