Sad-Eyed Angel

Description

This is a picture I made for school, for the Holocaust unit. I took a sentance from the book "Night" by Ellie Weisel. He described a kid who was sentanced, along with two other guys, to be hung because they were forming a resistance against Hitler in a concentration camp.

Ellie and the rest of the camp had to walk by them, and when Ellie walked by, the kid was still alive, his body not heavy enough to just snap his neck. The poor kid died of suffocation.

I also read that book, just recently! I almost cried when I read that part. But, I had a different appearance for him. Maybe blonde hair and grayish eyes, with a face of a sad angel. I can still remember Eliezer's words from that book. "The three chairs had been tipped over and we weeped. The 2 ropes had stopped moving, except for the one in the middle. There was the young boy still alive and moving. For over half an hour he struggled between life and death. We had to look at them full in the face. When I saw the little boy, he was still alive. This was the hanging of the sad eyed angel." Oh, so sad! :sadness:
