Portrait of the Artist by his father, Karl von Blaas (1815-1884)*
Auktionshaus Ursula Nusser, Munich, DE put this gem up on the current catalog recently. I got a good chuckle out of it. I do not think I have ever seen a serious painting depicting this kind of activity. This is a first for me. Julius von Blass (1888-1934) came from a family of artists and he studied under his father. His works mainly consisted of equestrian subjects and country Genre scenes (of which I would guess this painting qualifies). Anyway, I got a good laugh out of it.
