"Dubbed “The Weeping Frenchman,” the photo first appeared in print in Life Magazine in their March 3, 1941, issue, and came to represent the grief of a nation under occupation. The book “Marseille sous l’occupation” by Lucien Gaillard identifies the man in photo as Monsieur Jerôme Barzetti, who openly cried as French flags were taken down in the city of Marseilles in September 1940.

5. The look on the woman's face.

Horror. Aghast.

Sums up how I feel.
