I find this photograph so amazing for multiple reasons to do with the history behind it however one of the most interesting features is that Hitler is posing for a photograph like a tourist. This element of not just western culture but most cultures is amazing, and even though Hitler, an undeniable evil person, he still finds himself posing in front of the Eiffel tower. I think this in some way, sort of humanises Hitler in a weird way.
What is about our society that makes us pose for photographs in front of famous sites?
Why do we do this? - note the way everyone is holding themselves in the photograph!
Food for thought. :)
