This image was taken in 1944 in England, where Jack Lieb documented Allied preparations for the Normandy invasion. Propagandistic or representational portraits of the Nazi leader were occasionally used by Allied soldiers as informal targets—a small, everyday testimony to the mood in the camps before D-Day. Such photographs supplement Lieb’s sober war diary with a private perspective shaped by the troops.
