The Jewish painter Felix Nussbaum emigrated to Belgium in 1935. After the German invasion in 1940, he was deported to the French internment camp of St. Cyprien. From there he was able to flee to Belgium. In this painting Nussbaum is able to convey the despair and hopelessness he experienced in the camp.
Felix Nussbaum (Osnabrück, Lower Saxony, Germany 11 December 1904 - Auschwitz-Birkenau, 9 August 1944) was a Jewish-German painter. In 1922 Nussbaum began his studies at the Hamburger Kunstgewerbeschule in Hamburg, but already in the summer of 1923 he enrolled at the Berlin Vereinigten Staatsschulen für Freie und Angewandte Kunst. It is believed that on 9 August 1944, he was murdered in Auschwitz.
