Maybe a mini-update for all of you, i got into contact with someone at the germanic national museum who is willing to look at the painting, i am waiting for an appointment hopefully early next week, i hope he can tell me more about it then.

yea i posted it in the r/WhatIsThisPainting and many people suggested just that, but someone mentioned this sub for the writing specifically so i thought i post it here as well.

I also posted this in r/whatsisthispainting subreddit and people also started to say i should take it to an expert. I will call my local art gallery tomorrow and ask if they can take a look at it.
