Stock Photo - 21 September 2022, Saxony, Leipzig: Nadia Vergne (l-r), granddaughter of the Jewish Leipzig photographer Abram Mittelmann, and Küf Kaufmann, chairman of the Jewish Religious Community of Leipzig, as well as Anselm Hartinger and Johanna Sänger (both of the Stadtgeschichtliches Museum Leipzig) stand next to an advertisement on an advertising pillar in the Ariowitschhaus Leipzig. The lady, who lives in France, is trying to gain access to her grandfather's photo archive together with the Jewish Community and the Stadtgeschichtliches Museum. In 1987, a large and comprehensive collection of glass plate negatives from the Abram Mittelmann photo studio was found in an attic. Since then, they have been in the private possession of the finder. Nadia Vergne has been trying for years to gain access to her inheritance. The approximately 3,300 photos on about 2,200 glass plate negatives show mainly portraits of Jewish and non-Jewish Leipzig people from the 1930s until the night of the pogrom in 1938. The photographer, his wife and his daughter were murdered by the National Socialists. Photo: Jan Woitas/dpa. - Leipzig/Saxony/Germany
