Description

This original WWII German oil pastel painting on paper (adhered to a heavy cardboard backing) depicts a Luftwaffe Unterwachtmeister (non-commissioned officer sentinel), as evidenced by the set of two gullwing collar pins and rank tresse on his tunic. The red collar tabs denote service in a flak unit. Atop his head is an enlisted man's crusher cap. The painting does not appear to exhibit an artist's signature. It measures, overall, approximately 11 1/4 inches wide and 15 inches tall.

Provenance

In July of 2025, Gustafson's acquired the inventory of Circa1941. This piece was among those acquisitions.
