Adolf Hitler and senior Nazis, July 1944. Artist: Unknown

Adolf Hitler and senior Nazis, July 1944. The photograph was taken six days after the attempt on Hitler's life.

Although the bomb exploded, Hitler escaped with only minor injuries. Stauffenberg and other officers implicated in the July Plot were arrested, tried and executed, some with terrible brutality.
