The first picture shows the very last visit paid by the woman in the picture to the place that made her famous. The second visual might act as a clue for what this place is. Identify the woman and the place.
Answer: The woman is Miep Gies, who helped hide Anne Frank and her family during WWII. The second visual shows the bookcase behind which was the secret entrance to the room where Anne Frank and her family were hiding. Gies was remarkably modest about her role and has always insisted that there were many greater heroic deeds performed by others during WWII. She is also a Wallenberg fellow and passed away last week. Amresh, Hasan, Mekie, Iam (I hope you didn't mean the woman was Anne Frank), Anand, Ajinkya, Arvind, Manan and an anon got it. Well done all.
