Much obliged Simius Rex! I own you one.

I appreciate your help. Couldn't make something out of the signature...

More pictures as promised. Painting is 61/81 cm,77.5 /97.5 cm with the frame.

Many thanks for your input so far. I will fetch it tomorrow and keep you informed.

Just won this painting on a local auction. Hope to get it friday, it might have markings at the back, but in the meanwhile, does anyone know who the man could be?

Indeed!

I am more into headresses, and my favorite item in the collection is British. But if I had to choose for the German Imperial section, it would be this one;

Just kidding! 😉 My guess is that Hess is quiet a common German name.

Not military to me...

Hey, gosh!! ....Rudolf's helmet ....! ?? Thanks for your help. You are probably right.

I will. Meanwhile does anybody have an idea what the name of the owner can be. "Heks" or something...??

They are usually left as they are. Except adding a front plate, undo the rossette of that ugly paint. And upgrading the chinstrap, there will no happen much more to this guy.

Thanks.

Indeed. But he is good now, and will recover. 😉
