      Adolf Hitler (right) was the ruler of Nazi Germany from 1933 until his death in 1945.

          This is all I could gather:

          The meaning of the Hitler salute: Little man asks for great gifts. Motto: Millions stand behind me!, original assembly for the workers' Illustrierte-Zeitung, 1932, No. 42 (Inv.Nr. JH 509), © The Heartfield Community of Heirs / VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn

          If I had to guess, I'd say it's portraying Hitler as a puppet of big business and that the guy on the left does not represent a real person in particular.
