One of his most tragic works is Fear. He clutches his niece, the future, with terror. Yet even in the darkness stars & a lantern offer hope. Self-Portrait with Key (1941), Fear (Self-Portrait with his Niece, Marianne) 1941, Camp Synagogue (1941), Self Portrait with Felka (1942)

His painting, the Pearls, is ominous in showing a grieving woman, melancholy child & graveyard (how should we read Christian crosses?). The Pearls (Mourners) 1938, Don Quixote & the Windmills (1938), the Great Disaster (c1939) & Self-Portrait with Surrealist Background (1939)
