Winter in '59


Winter in Dätzingen, 1959, from the Archives in Saskatoon
Pleasant memories remain with paintings of the far-too-few snowfalls in southern Germany. Winter paintings are many, of the prairies and Saskatoon skylines, but ones from the 1960s in Germany are scarce. Below are two more favorites, just recently 're-discovered' via communication through this blog. They are part of the collection of the Ebner family and were photographed and graciously made available to post. It is very exciting to be able to see them again, and also to expand the database of the Stehwien works in this way. Thank you to the owners!
