"And they did not even begin to live." (translation from the Italian placard on the building) This building's facade reminds me of a human shrieking in horror: the two arched windows are the eyes; the large placard is the nose; the smaller placard is a moustache; and the door with its covered grating is the mouth. The building has a right to be shocked. It is the building in the Roman Ghetto where the 1,023 Jewish citizens of Rome, Italy, were gathered on October 16, 1943, by the Gestapo and shipped off to the Auschwitz concentration camp to be murdered. Only 15 men and 1 woman survived.
