From April 9 to April 22, more than 120 large-scale portraits of Holocaust survivors will be showcased at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The installation, designed by German-Italian artist Luigi Toscano, provides a human angle to Holocaust remembrance to help ensure that the world never forgets and inspires us to fight hatred and antisemitism today.
In 2015 and 2017, Toscano visited Washington, DC, to photograph survivors who volunteer at the Museum. Twenty-three of their portraits will be featured in Lest We Forget.
