About the Item
Pair Antique Marksmen Target Plaques with Deer, Germany 1930s
A pair of antique honorary shooting targets. The wooden panels are decorated with colorful oil paintings depicting deer in the wild. The pictures were painted by the German art painter Gustaf Grosch (1867-1938), who was famous for his shooting target paintings. They bear a handwritten inscription of the winner and the artist's signature on the front and back. Shot in Germany in 1931 and 1932.
The target of honor or king's target is a traditional award in shooting competitions. The tradition is predominantly widespread in southern Germany, Austria and Lower Saxony. Honorary targets are donated and shot in honor of a personality, on the occasion of a birthday, a wedding or a prize shooting competition. They were often artistically designed and hand-painted, especially in the 18th and 19th centuries. With the advent of printing technology, targets were also created using artistic prints.
