Never Again


Nie Wieder Krieg Never again war. Done in charcoal by Kathe Kollwitz in 1924. I found among my grandmother's belongings a book of artwork by Kathe Kollwitz given to my grandmother by her brother who was murdered by the Nazis. His inscription in the book addressed to my grandmother expressed the wish that never again should Europe know the horrors it experienced during the Great War from 1914-1918.
