In a remarkable discovery, an album containing clandestine unsigned photographs of Nazi-occupied Paris was found at a Paris flea market in 2020. This collection, initially shrouded in mystery, has been attributed to Raoul Minot, an amateur photographer who risked his life to document the era. Minot’s work, comprising nearly 1,300 images, offers a unique perspective of life under the occupation, when taking such photos was strictly forbidden. A four-year investigation by the newspaper Le Monde has finally uncovered Minot’s identity along with the fact that he was ultimately denounced by a fellow Frenchman, sent to Buchenwald and died in the Holocaust as an unknown hero of the resistance.
