Bare-chested young men against the sky, 1937

From a low angle, against a sky of piled white clouds, three young men stripped to the waist stand in a row, their hair shaved close at the sides, chins raised and eyes fixed on something beyond the frame; none of them moves. The low camera and the heroic sky were the language of the regime's own photographers and of Leni Riefenstahl's rally films, and yet the three look simply young.
