ORIGINAL HERMANN GOERING-OWNED WATERCOLOR PAINTING
Rare opportunity to own a water color that was owned and displayed in Hermann Goering’s vacation home in Wenningstedt on the Isle of Sylt. It stayed in the house when Emmy Göring sold it after the war. It and other artwork recently came onto the market for the first time. You will be the first collector whose hands it arrives in. Original watercolor by “R. Wefing” painted in 1937. It shows the bridge at Hörnum with ships in the foreground. It was presented to Göring when he visited Fliegerhörst Hörnung on 13.6.1937. Description written in pencil: errn Generaloberst Hermann Goering anlässlich des Besuches des Fliegerhorstes Hörnum am 13. Juni 1937 gewidmet. It comes in the original frame and matting. Unfortunately, the glass broke in transit from Germany but it would be an easy replacement at a frame shop. What looks like staining are just shadows. Link below shows the house when it was listed for sale.
