Description
A hand-painted coastal scene brings the Alte Erholung at Husum onto this porcelain wall plate dated 1986.
The blue painting shows people on a seaside path, boats on the water and birds above the building, whose roof sign reads Erholung. Fine linear details and washes distinguish the figures, shoreline and architecture against the white ground. The reverse is inscribed Alte Erholung Husum and handgemalt 1986, directly supporting the stated decoration date. A small stylised animal mark and initials accompany the inscription, but the painter or studio is not identified. Two holes in the foot ring provide the plate's hanging provision. The subject is German, while the blank porcelain's manufacturing origin is not independently established by the handwritten title. The date belongs to the painted decoration rather than a named porcelain factory. Related pieces appear in Ceramics and Blues and Whites.
