20. Juli 1944 - Biographie eines Tages #[nn]

Niels Schröder's 2019 graphic work from be.bra Verlag takes on one of the most fateful days in 20th-century German history — the assassination attempt of July 20, 1944. The cover sets the tension immediately: a uniformed German officer carrying a briefcase stands in stark, angular linework, while a shadowed, grimacing face looms large in the foreground, the two figures locked in a charged visual confrontation. With Schröder handling every aspect of the work — writing, pencils, inks, and colors — this is a deeply personal artistic vision of a single day whose consequences reverberated across history.
