Georges Angéli
The French photographer stole one of the cameras kept in the photo department in June 1944 and secretly took eleven photos on a Sunday when there were no SS in the camp. The motive for these motifs, most of which were photographed in the "Little Camp", was to create testimonies that would outlive the camp. Angéli hid the original prints until liberation.
