Max Beckmann Quote

At 10 o'clock a Dutch girl came by Lütjens: ! PEACE!
Well - not quite yet - green police [the Germans] still driving around with machine guns, etc. Nevertheless big peace party with warning by Eisenhower. - Walked around in the city, much drunkenness..


From his diary, 4 May 1945.
