Description The year is 1943, Karl Hermann Frank is appointed Reich minister for Bohemia and Moravia, making him the most powerful figure in the Protectorate.
No one is safe. Not even his colleagues. Frank has the right to organise executions without any trials. Only one thing is needed to end a life of any Protectorate citizen; his signature.

K. H. Frank was nicknamed "Enemy of the Czech nation number one", "The executioner of the Czech nation" and "The bloody dog". Can say these nicknames are pretty fitting. Frank was, either partly or directly, behind every terror committed towards Czechs during World War II.
As a Sudeten German, Frank hated Czechs with passion. Ever since the establishment of the Protectorate to its end, he has always been in a position of a great power and he made sure to terrorise the Czechs as much as he could.

Karl Hermann Frank was truly a vile man, a monster. He was surely one of the worst historical figures to ever step in the Bohemian lands and his terrible actions shall not be forgotten.

That's the end of my historical lesson for today, but just letting you know, if you'd have any questions about Frank, feel free to ask me.

*couGh* Alright guys, today we have here another symbolical art piece! But this time I'll explain everything myself, because I don't think you'd be able to find out what all of that means xd

So first, there are the Bohemian crown jewels; the Bohemian crown of Saint Wenceslas and the sceptre. According to the legend, whoever has the crowning jewels in their possession automatically becomes the ruler of the Bohemian lands. And as I said that's literally what Frank became in 1943, so no need to say more. However, the legend also says, that if you're not a rightful ruler of the Czech lands and you still decide to put the crown on your head, you'll die in a year. So that's why Frank is only touching the crown and not putting it on his head, he's not fucking dumb lmao-

Another symbolism is the halo. No it definitely doesn't mean that Frank was saint or something pff he was quite the opposite- Halos were put behind the heads of emperors so that's another thing that symbolises his power.

The last thing is the background. It's not just a random combination of colours, it has a meaning. We can see there towers of Prague, all black as a symbol for sorrow and pain that Frank's rule caused. And the red sky symbolizing blood, all the blood that was shed during the Nazi regime in this small country.

Damn ok that's all now something on a more positive note-
Ok so aksk hi guys I'm actually so proud of this art piece?? This is probably the most accurate art I've done so far, the uniform should be 100% accurate, but that's not all!

You see the SS honour ring that Frank is wearing on his middle finger and his wedding ring on his ring finger? That's it. It's interesting because the SS honour ring was supposed to be worn on a ring finger, but Frank wore it only on his middle finger, it was too big apparently. Another detail is his left pupil being much smaller than the right one. Could seem pretty disturbing but that's actually how it looked irl, since his right eye was a glass prosthesis, the pupil wasn't able to get smaller when a light was pointed at it.

And the last thing I'm gonna mention is his golden tooth. I knew that Frank had golden teeth but I wasn't sure which ones, so I looked at some pictures and it seems that his left fang was made of gold.

*checks notes* Oh shit that's one long ass description again, sorry I got carried away and kinda continued in my history lesson, happens when you have the opportunity to talk about your favourite historical figure I guess sjksk-
Ok ok I'll end it here seriously, if you read the whole description then damn thank you sm for attention ❤
(I finished this drawing just now and I'm so fucking tired so I'll check my other social media tomorrow, sorry ahsjs good night yall ily)
