When Europe fell prey to totalitarian regimes in the twentieth century, the Slovene artist Tone Kralj expressed resistance through his paintings in Catholic churches on the Slovene–Italian ethnic border, which show Hitler and Mussolini as villainous Biblical characters. This highly illustrated volume traces the anti-fascist messages in his work.
