Hitler produced
many paintings depicting the areas that he visited. However, he produced a large

He was known to
have a varying style, working in oils and watercolor, which makes verification
of his paintings even more difficult. In fact, it is said that many of Hitler's
paintings that have previously sold for thousands of pounds may in fact be
fakes.

The
tranquility and peacefulness portrayed in Hitler's paintings belie the
atrocities he committed during World War II. one can only wonder how a man who
was responsible for so many deaths could paint gentle, colorful paintings of
flowers, churches and country sides.
