A German proclamation to the people of Oslo

Beneath the letters LENGE LEV…, painted in large strokes on a wall, a soldier in a German steel helmet stands beside a poster crowned with the eagle and swastika. It reads: 'An die Bevölkerung von Oslo / Norweger! / Die Kriegslage erfordert strengste Beachtung der folgenden Vorschriften', followed by the rules that no one may be in the streets between 7 in the evening and 6 in the morning and that any gathering of more than three persons is forbidden. The painted words begin the Norwegian for 'long live'.
