Warsaw, 1943 Terrified Jewish families surrender to German soldiers in the Warsaw ghetto in the spring of 1943. In January of that year, the residents of the ghetto rose up against the Nazis and held their ground for several months, but they were defeated after fierce fighting in April and May. This is perhaps the most famous photograph of the Holocaust, principally because of the small, neatly dressed boy in the large cap on the right of the picture. For almost 70 years, people have attempted to identify the boy. Numerous names have been suggested, but the mystery remains unsolved.Photograph: Hulton-Deutsch Collection/CORBIS -- source link
