The East Side Gallery, Vaterland, Depicting elements of the Israeli flag superimposed onto the German flag, Günther Schaefer's 'Vaterland' ('Fatherland') was painted to honour the 50th anniversary of the Night of Broken Glass (Kristallnacht), when Nazi forces in Germany and Austria destroyed Jewish-owned shops and businesses. The painting is a protest against extreme regimes and abuses of human rights, but has been a target of vandalism since it was painted in 1990. The Berlin Wall, a former symbol of division, is now the world's largest open-air gallery, featuring 105 murals by artists from across the globe.Berlin, Germany, 19/10/2019
