This multi-lingual work is comprised of countless clandestine photographs taken in the Lodz Ghetto during the Holocaust by Polish-Jewish photographer and journalist Henryk Ross (1910-1991). Originally Ross was tasked by the Department of Statistics for the Jewish Council of the ghetto to taken identity and statistical photographs of the residents and was given only enough film to fulfill his official duties.
