Margot Serowy shows
the rape of German women by Russian soldiers in this painting. Serowy
was born in East Prussia in 1937 and witnessed the apocalypse that
Germany underwent at the end of WW2. She describes the painting thus, “Please
take me. A mother’s plea to save her young daughter. Rape was a fact of
life among the Russian soldiers. My mother was raped by seven of them
right beside me. Children played at rape.”
