Standing over him is an armed Nazi officer holding a pistol and a leash, wearing a swastika on his military cap to represent Nazi Germany.A powerful piece of wartime political commentary critiquing the Vichy regime's collaboration with the Nazi occupiers, framing it as the literal burial of free France under the threat of German force.Related Items:
