Shouting \"Zwillinge heraus!\" (\"Twins out!\"), the doctor—also known as the \"White Angel\" because of the white overcoat he wore, which contrasted sharply with the uniforms of Nazi soldiers—selected at least three thousand twins, usually by tearing them from their parents. And in the experimental barracks of Kappa-Zeta in Auschwitz, Camp B II d, the simultaneous death of twins regularly occurred. Dr. Josef Mengele took them from him. But Mengele was in Auschwitz primarily to pursue his pseudoscientific research interests on race. He was convinced that genetics could make a decisive contribution to identifying the dominant traits of the Aryan race, maintaining its purity, and reproducing it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Details :\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMedium: New Media on professional paper\u003cbr\u003eEdition: Limited 1\/100 - Numbered and certified piece\u003cbr\u003eAvailable sizes: S \/ M \/ L\u003cbr\u003eYear of Creation: 2023\u003cbr\u003eArtist: Olindo Casazza\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA certificate of authenticity is included with every purchase, dated, numbered, and hand-signed by the artist O.C.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"OLINDO CASAZZA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52403305316619,"sku":"T.M.O.C.","price":600.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2779\/9051\/files\/LeGemelleCathellen-Collen.jpg?v=1758573087","url":"https:\/\/www.olindocasazza.com\/products\/twins-of-mengele-new-media-olindocasazza","provider":"OLINDO CASAZZA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
