Title A name given to the resource Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini in Munich, Germany Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Braun, Eva Subject The topic of the resource Adolf Hitler; Benito Mussolini; Munich; Germany; Fascist Italy; Nazi Germany; Axis powers; political leadership Description An account of the resource This black-and-white photograph shows Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini together in Munich, Germany, around June 1940. The image comes from Eva Braun’s photo albums, which are part of the National Archives Collection of Foreign Records Seized. For a project about propaganda in World War II Europe, this image is useful because it shows how fascist leaders used public appearances and photography to present unity, power, and confidence. Images of Hitler and Mussolini together helped visually support the idea of a strong Axis alliance between Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Instead of using a written slogan, the photograph communicates political authority through the bodies, uniforms, and public presence of the two leaders. It shows that propaganda could work through staged leadership images, not only posters.
