The photo series consists of three pictures and their backs in the format 7 x 10 cm. The photos have been preserved as original prints by the photographer’s son, Günther Kühn. Currently they are kept in a private album of the Kühn family, which contains the photo-documentary works of Karl Kühn, the photographer. The labeling of the backs of the photos and the album pages was done retrospectively by Günther Kühn. The three Bingen pictures show a short scene in the deportation process. You can see the people to be deported arriving at Bingen Fruchtmarkt on the banks of the Rhine and the trucks lined up there in a long row, complete with guards. The order of the photos implies that the photographer moved along with the people to be deported. None of the persons on the photos have yet been identified by name.

The photographer who took the pictures in the photo series from Bingen was the chemist and photo shop owner Karl Kühn. He had his store not far from Fruchtmarkt, which served as an assembly point for the Jews who were to be deported. It is very probable that he learned of the event by chance and set off with his little son to take some pictures. Assuming that his camera might be confiscated or destroyed, he used one of his less expensive camera models. Kühn made the prints of the pictures himself and kept them in the attic of his house. They were only found there after Karl Kühn's son Günther Kühn had closed down the business and given up the family home. Günter Kühn digitized them and made them available to the Verein für jüdisches Bingen e.V. Today, digital copies of the pictures are held by the Osthofen Concentration Camp Memorial, the Jewish Museum Berlin, and the Museum for Jewish Heritage in New York.
