A solitary figure sits on a bridge, dreaming no doubt of one day invading Poland.
This watercolour is thought to be the earliest self-portrait by Adolf Hitler, painted in 1910 when the future Fuhrer was 21 and a struggling artist.
Kept in storage since it was discovered during the Second World War, it has been placed on public view before it is auctioned next month.
The painting, along with 12 others by the Nazi monster, was found by Company Sergeant Major Willie J McKenna when he was stationed in Essen, Germany in 1945.
They were sold direct to the present unidentified vendor and kept out of sight for decades.
The 13 paintings will be auctioned at Ludlow racecourse in Shropshire on April 23 and are expected to fetch tens of thousands of pounds. The others are of flowers and landscapes. via MailOnline.
