Titled “Herbst”, the illustration combines fallen leaves, a carved pumpkin and a watchful owl. Cream, ochre and brown create a warm setting for the red clothing and schoolhouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scene balances a large branching tree with rounded hills and an open sky. Small bird silhouettes cross above a red building with a bell tower. A pale sun sits behind the distant hill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChildren on a Seesaw\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA blonde girl in a red dress and broad bonnet sits at the raised end of the seesaw. Opposite her, a smaller blonde child wears a white top, red trousers and a rounded bonnet. Both hold the wooden handles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe long pale board rests on a tree stump at the centre. Below it, a carved pumpkin sits beside a red book and pencil. Fallen leaves scatter across the foreground, linking the play scene with the seasonal setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOwl, Schoolhouse and Autumn Hills\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn owl with large round eyes perches in the tree at the left. Sparse leaves cling to the branches while others drift through the air. Fine dark outlines define the bark, feather details and pointed leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA fence follows the rolling hills towards the red schoolhouse. A dotted path climbs to its door, beside a small flagpole. The building’s dark roof and bell tower stand out against the pale sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe warm background alternates pale areas with ochre and brown landscape shading. These tones frame the brighter red accents without overwhelming them. The composition contains several small stories within a single circular scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHerbst Title and Copyright\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Herbst”, the German word for autumn, appears in flowing script along the lower edge. The inscription “© 1966 by joan walsh anglund” follows the adjoining curve. This dates the illustration’s copyright rather than establishing the plate’s production year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA narrow dark outline frames the printed scene inside the white rim. The illustration covers most of the shallow porcelain face. Its detailed linework rewards close viewing as well as display from a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWalther Backstamp and Hanging Wire\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe white reverse carries a blue tulip-shaped Walther mark with the number 12 beneath it. A raised circular foot ring supports the plate. Metal hanging hardware remains attached near the upper part of the reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe existing wire is darkened and visibly bent. Its condition should be checked before any hanging use. It is included as found, rather than presented as a ready-to-use mounting system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood vintage condition overall, with a clearly defined illustration and readable title and copyright inscription. The background has a warm cream and ivory appearance. No chips or cracks are visible in the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rear hanging wire shows darkening and bending. Detailed photographs show the reverse, rim, profile and illustrated surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTitle: Herbst \/ Autumn\u003cbr\u003eIllustrator: Joan Walsh Anglund\u003cbr\u003eBackstamp: Blue Walther tulip mark with number 12\u003cbr\u003eDesign copyright: ©1966 by Joan Walsh Anglund\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Germany\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Porcelain\u003cbr\u003eDecoration: Colour-printed autumn scene\u003cbr\u003eMotif: Children on a seesaw, carved pumpkin, owl, birds and red schoolhouse\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: Approximately 20 cm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: Approximately 3 cm\u003cbr\u003eMount: Existing bent and darkened metal hanging wire\u003cbr\u003eQuantity: One plate\u003cbr\u003eSKU: 2C172\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy It’s Special\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe seesaw, pumpkin and schoolhouse give this seasonal plate an engaging storybook character.
