General der Panzertruppe Otto von Knobelsdorff (Kommandierender General
XXXX. Panzerkorps) in a photo that was published on 21 September 1944,
the day he received the Schwerter for his Ritterkreuz. Photographer:
Presse-Illustrationen Heinrich Hoffmann. Hoffmann (1885–1957) was Adolf
Hitler's personal photographer and ran a major photo agency
(Presse-Illustrationen Heinrich Hoffmann) that supplied images to German
newspapers, magazines, and propaganda outlets. Many formal military
portraits and award ceremonies from the Third Reich period carry this
credit, especially studio or posed shots of high-ranking officers
wearing decorations like the Ritterkreuz and above.
