Richard Ehrlich, an urological surgeon with a second career in photography, went to to the International Tracing Service in Bad Arolsen, Germany - the repository for 50 million documents of Nazi atrocities in the world's largest Holocaust archive.

There, he shot hundreds of photographs and winnowed them down to a 54-image portfolio. He started in June 2007 and returned in September, taking long views of the storage system and close-ups of individual items, including Oskar Schindler's list of people who escaped death by working in his factory, a pile of snapshots confiscated from prisoners, badges that Jews were forced to wear, the order that sent Anne Frank to Bergen Belsen, where she died in 1945.
