Hi,
Can anyone ID this officer(Luftwaffe, DAK?).
Cheers.

Thanks Horst, most likely going to be difficult to put a name to him.

Very well painted. I like it.

Cheers, Ade.

A nice painting, but I'm afraid putting a name on an unknown junior NCO will be next to impossible.

I am in a similar position with this painting in my collection:

It would be great to put a name to him, but it is highly unlikely to happen.

Cheers, Ade.

Who was the artist that painted yours?

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade,
The name is Maiburg 1944, I don't own it as yet. I was trying to do some background work on it before I make an offer on it.
As someone else has pointed out, putting a name to him may well be nigh on impossible.

1944 is quite a late date for a portrait of a soldier of the Afrikakorps: I wonder now if it was done to commemorate a fallen son or husband?

I think it is a super item.

Cheers, Ade.
