Hitler and Nuncio Cesare Orsenigo

The Nazis took over Austria in March 1938, providing a new arena for propaganda. This picture shows an enormous version of "Ein Volk Ein Reich Ein Führer" [One People One Reich One Führer] carved into the side of the Brandjoch, a peak in the Karwendel range visible from Innsbruck. According to the caption, the words in the snow, put there by local mountain climbers, were almost a mile long.
