Description

Detail of a ground level photograph taken at Auschwitz-Birkenau between February 9 and 11, 1943, showing the roof of the almost completely subterranean gas chamber of Crematorium II. The two dark short vertical shadows directly under the window are the two southernmost apertures for the respective Zyklon B insertion columns. The third is hidden behind the chimney and part of the fourth can just be seen to the left of it.

Criticism of Holocaust denial

Portion used

An enlargement of a photograph to make the subject matter clear.

Low resolution?

Yes

Purpose of use

For visual identification of how Zyklon B was inserted into the gas chambers at Auschwitz, and photographic confirmation that these apertures existed.

Replaceable?

Other information

Since the SS is now a defunct paramilitary organisation, it is impossible that the usage of such a photograph could have a commercially depreciative impact.
