Description
Oswald Deitrich after Gustav Adolf Kuntz (German 1843-1879) “Ein Gruss aus der Welt” (A Greeting from the World). A late 19th / early 20th Gebrüder Heubach porcelain plaque. Signed, and faintly titled verso. Mounted in a good, glazed, gilt and wood frame. The reverse marked with a partial blue Heubach mark, used 1882-1915, and an impressed number (235).
The painting depicts “the nun of Monza” (Sister Virginia Maria) who an Internet search will reveal was involved in a torrid tale including an illicit love affair and murder.
Lefays has clarified that the C1900 Oswald Deitrich Gebruder Heubach Porcelain Plaque (LA512729) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1900
