An expressionistic painting, possibly a burning tree. An estimated 500,000 Roma and Sinti people were murdered in the Holocaust, along with 6 million Jews, and other victims, such as people with disabilities, and homosexuals, political prisoners, etc. From Brooklyn Rail, September 2023, a quote from the artist: “What should I be afraid of? Auschwitz is my overcoat, Bergen-Belsen my dress, and Ravensbrück my undershirt.”
