Emotionally resonant photographs of everyday life in the Jewish Lódz Ghetto taken during WWII

From 1941 to 1944, the Polish Jewish photographer Henryk Ross (1910–91) was a member of an official team documenting the implementation of Nazi policies in the Lódz Ghetto. Covertly, he captured on film scores of both quotidian and intimate moments of Jewish life. In 1944, he buried thousands of negatives in an attempt to save this secret record. After the war, Ross returned to Poland to retrieve them. Although some were destroyed by nature and time, many negatives survived.

This compelling volume, originally published in 2015 and now available in paperback, presents a selection of Ross's images along with original prints and other archival material including curfew notices and newspapers. The photographs offer a startling and moving representation of one of humanity's greatest tragedies. Striking for both their historical content and artistic quality, his photographs have a raw intimacy and emotional power that remain undiminished.

二战期间拍摄的罗兹犹太人区的日常生活照片，引发广泛的情感共鸣

从1941年到1944年，波兰犹太摄影师亨利克·罗斯（Henryk Ross，1910-91）是记录纳粹政策在洛兹犹太区实施情况的官方小组成员。他秘密地用胶片拍摄了犹太人生活中的几十个琐碎和亲密的时刻。1944年，他掩埋了数千张底片，试图保存这一秘密记录。战后，罗斯回到波兰取回了这些照片。虽然有些被自然和时间摧毁了，但仍有许多底片成功保存下来。

这本引人注目的书，最初出版于2015年，现在有了平装本，展示了罗斯的部分图像以及原始印刷品和其他档案材料，包括宵禁通知和报纸。这些照片对人类**的悲剧之一进行了令人震惊和感动的表述。他的照片因其历史内容和艺术质量而引人注目，有一种原始的亲密感和情感力量，至今仍未减弱。
