Recognize the dashing young man in this portrait, painted with the faintest hint of a toothbrush moustache?
 
The child in question is none other than Adolf Hitler. London-based artist Annie Kevans painted the image above nine years ago when she was in art school, and followed it up with more of the world's worst political figures.
 
Kevans' installation, called "Boys," is now on view at Saatchi Gallery's "Paper" exhibit. A young Mao Zedong, an adolescent Saddam Hussein, and a particularly frightening Joseph Stalin on the edge of puberty are gathered together in the oil painting series below.
 
"People had been trying to buy bits and pieces of [the installation]," Kevans stated to the Guardian. "They all wanted Hitler."

"Paper" will be on view at Saatchi Gallery in London until September 29, 2013.
