The Duchess of Cambridge has taken two moving photographs of Holocaust survivors and their families to mark the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
The images, which will feature in an exhibition of 75 photographs depicting Holocaust survivors with their family members, were released to coincide with Holocaust Memorial Day on Monday. The duchess, who is a patron of the Royal Photographic Society, described the survivors she photographed as"two of the most life-affirming people" she had ever met. Yvonne Bernstein pictured with her granddaughter Chloe Wright, aged 11.
To make the portraits more personal, Frank and Bernstein were photographed with items of family significance. Frank brought a pan his mother used throughout their time in the concentration camps, as well as a tomato from his garden. As a young boy in Theresienstadt camp, he helped another prisoner by watering his tomatoes.
