Photo of an oil painting in the Berlin Jewish Museum. The original painting is dated 1711 and therefore public domain. The associated text "The Jew as Scapegoat" states that this painting is of Werner von Oberwesel, a Christian boy allegedly murdered by Jews, an incident that led to revenge killing of Jews throughout Europe.
