The 1943 poster titled "Katyn - Paradise Underground..." is a poignant and historically significant artwork that sheds light on a tragic chapter of World War II. Created during a tumultuous time, this poster serves as a visual reminder of the atrocities committed at Katyn. The artist behind this poster is not widely known, but their message is powerful. The poster features an arresting image of bound hands breaking free from the earth, symbolizing the victims of the Katyn Massacre who were executed and buried in mass graves. Katyn, a forest in Russia, became the site of a mass murder of Polish military officers and intellectuals by the Soviet NKVD in 1940. The poster's title, "Paradise Underground," is ironic, as it alludes to the horrific fate that befell these victims who were buried in secret graves.

It reminds us of the importance of remembering historical events and the role that art plays...
