Hindenburg Plaque

Product Description: This Hindenburg Plaque is a very attractive patriotic decorative item, from the time of the first World War. It is made of brass. The front of the plaque depicts a beautiful, detailed portrait of Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg, the leader of the Imperial German Army (and later President of Germany). Hindenburg is depicted on this plaque in military uniform. The bottom of the plaque has the name “v. Hindenburg,” and the upper part has detailed oak leaf ornamentation and the date “1914.” The plaque has a beautiful, untouched, even patina, with chocolate brown tones. There is some extremely slight wear to the high points that reveals a hint of the gold-toned base metal. The reverse of the plaque also has a deep, uncleaned patina. This handsome and uncommon Hindenburg Plaque remains in near mint condition.

Historical Description: European artisans of the 19th and 20th centuries created countless artworks with military and political themes. Some of these were connected to specific military, political, civil and paramilitary organizations, while others were commercially available pieces that anyone could buy. These art pieces took countless forms, from busts or statues of military leaders, to sculpted wall plaques, fine art paintings, fine porcelain, and every other kind of art in use at the time. Some were unique, custom works of art; some of these were made as presentation pieces. Others were mass produced as decorative or souvenir items; catalogs filled with all kinds of such mass-market items were produced by a number of factories. After the end of WWII, artwork featuring military or nationalistic imagery fell out of favor in some European societies. Many pieces were destroyed.
