'Museum of Madness' Shows Previously Unknown Painting by Hitler for First Time

Description

Did you know that the greatest childhood dream of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler was to become an artist? This spooky work is actually one of his painting unveiled for the first time ever as part of an exhibition of unusual works called "The Museum of Madness" at the Museo di Salo in Northern Italy The oil painting by Hitler is actually considered to be a rather mediocre work of art, but the name recognition makes it an instant attraction. Around 200 works of art including paintings, photos, sculptures and multimedia installations, are on display at the exhibition, which runs until November 16. The town of Salo where the Museum of Madness exhibition is taking place actually has a direct connection with Fascism. It was the capital of the Italian Social Republic, otherwise known as the Republic of Salo, which was ruled by dictator Benito Mussolini between 1943 and 1945. Mussolini was arrested in 1943 after Allied powers invaded southern Italy, but was set free by the Nazis after they conquered northern Italy.
