F Plossl, Mother and Child, Original Oil Painting, Mid-century

1920 - 1940
Description

On the face of it, this painting could simply be construed as a depiction of a proud mother and her loving child. She’s looking straight towards us as she holds the left hand of her doting son. He’s wearing a blue outfit with white trim and places his arms on his mother’s shoulders.

However, when you consider that the painting is dated 1945 and it originates in Germany, it becomes potentially much more significant. Is this merely an innocuous family image or could it be a satirical reference following the end of World War II? Either way, it’s certainly unusual and makes for an interesting talking point.

Signed ‘F Plössl’ in the bottom right.

Please just ask if you would like this painting to be framed and we will try to source something appropriate for its age. We only charge for the cost of the actual frame (approximately £50) and include the framing process for free.

Medium: Oil on canvas

Size: 22½” x 18” / 57cm x 46cm

Year of creation: 1945

Condition: Canvas with some small creases but no holes or repairs.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
