Intresting model of the carrier - Graf Zepplin with a compliment of Bf-109's and Ju-87 Stuka's on board.
Would be intresting te see a Bf-109 landing on a carrier with its delicate landing gear design.
The Graf Zeppelin was the lead ship in a class of two aircraft carriers for the German WW-II Kriegsmarine.
In the end it is the only aircraft carrie launched by Germany.
The complement of aircraft would be 42 fighters and dive bombers.
Construction on Graf Zeppelin began on 28 December 1936 in Kiel. Named in honor of Graf (Count) Ferdinand von Zeppelin.
The ship was launched on 8 December 1938, and was 85% complete by the outbreak of World War II in September 1939.
Graf Zeppelin was not completed and was never operational due to shifting construction priorities necessitated by the war.
She remained in the Baltic for the duration of the war.
The ship was scuttled just outside Stettin in March 1945 by the German crew.
The Soviet Union raised the ship in March 1946.
The Graf Zeppelin was ultimately sunk in weapons tests north of Poland 17 months later.

Onderaan de aartsengel is een tekst aangebracht. Beatus vir qui inventus est sine macula
et qui post aurum non abiit Liber Jesu filii Sirach 31:8-9
Zalig is de man die wordt gevonden zonder smet,
en hij dat niet is gegaan voor het goud,
noch vertrouwen in geld en schatten.
Wie is hij, en wij zullen Hem prijzen?

The Neuenahr Altarpiece was commissioned soon after the death of Gumprecht II, Graf von Neuenahr & Limburg in 1484. It depicts the count, his wife Margarethe of Limburg (+ca. 1459?) and their children.
Only one son was still alive when the painting was made: Wilhelm (ca. 1447-1497). My guess is that he's the knight in black armour, who is visibly in his thirties; while the first-born son (the same golden armour as his father!) Friedrich (ca. 1439-1468) is shown as a younger man.
I like the fact that we see some hybrid fashions and armours here: the flutings seem quite abundant (very 'German') for the Cologne region, being close to the almost 'flutingless' Low Countries, while the surcoats with long slit sleeves, buttoned at the wrists, are very typical for specifically Flanders and bordering parts of Brabant, Hainaut etc. The little cape on the back of the surcoats on the other hand is apparently very typical for the Northern Low Countries, i.e. Holland, Utrecht etc.
Also note that Gumprecht sports the earlier bowl haircut of the 1460s to depict his old age.
The oeuvre of the Master of the Holy Kinship the Younger was by this date already influenced by the work of Hugo van der Goes and other Flemish Primitives.
I absolutely love this painting, showing so many geographical layers of fashion and style :)
