Painting on Porcelain - Hermann Sontag -Any Info About Him?

I found his name and the fact that he is German, date of birth, etc.  Anything else I do not know.  Would this be a KPM painting? Any additional information would be appreciated. 

Thanks.

Painting on Porcelain - Hermann Sontag -Any Info About Him?

What is written on  the back? I believe there could be clues there.  Sonntag died in 1934, his original works don't seem to sell for very much. The pair of numbers in the center could be series numbers. This piece being 1071 of the 2216 made. just a guess. Is that a price upper left? Lower right, Verlassen and ?

The rest is very difficult to read.  The next word looks like it starts with an m or nuile or nuihe, (just a guess) and the last word looks like Winck.  Yes, it is a partial price sticker near the top left. It reads: Venezia, and under it is $8.2  The number 107 is also imbedded in the back of the porcelain.

I hope you have a winner there!! I enjoyed researching an art form I have no knowledge of... KPM. Please let the board know how it turns out! 🙂

 

PS an embedded number is a good sign from what I read.

 

The first German word means leave, I wonder if it meant left to someone?
