This is very difficult to look at. Just imagine how he must have felt when he first realized he was the only one to survive out of the 8 people who were taken from the attic that day.
An American named Arnold Newman took this photo. When Newman photographed Otto Frank, father of Anne Frank, he found his heart and mind hesitating. “How could I ask this man to pose?” he shared with us. “I couldn’t. Instead, I just waited, and Otto went into a deeply pensive mood. It was then that I took the photograph.” When the session was over, the two men embraced–and cried. Source
