This wax model of Adolf Hitler was created before the outbreak of World War II. He wanted to be portraited as an energetic speaker. For me he looks extremly unfriendly and horrid. It is surprising that he could win the confidence of so many people resulting in is election as chancellor. This tragic and nonexcusable error later resulted into a long conflict and the death of millions of people.
