Illustration of a boy by a barbed wire fence looking at a smokestack under a starry sky, with a Star of David.

A dark, desolate landscape under a starless night sky. Barbed wire fences stretch across the scene, symbolizing the concentration camps. A silhouette of a young boy (Elie) stands in the foreground, emaciated and hollow-eyed, staring at a smokestack in the distance. The smokestack emits a faint, ghostlike trail of smoke, symbolizing death and the crematoria. A Torah scroll lies torn and trampled in the dirt beside him—representing lost faith. In the sky, faint ghostly faces or hands reach down, evoking the memory of those who were lost. See more
