Found F. Leftler art behind another picture

I found a picture today. It was in a very old frame. The picture that caught my eye as "The Fairy Tale" by Walter Firle. I was somewhat interested in finding out if it had any markings on it. While taking the back off, I found another beautiful picture! It is signed by F. Lefler.

Attached to the back was this old card that says F. LEFLER GRATULATION . There is also a symbol of some kind. It reads ( in a cirle) "PHOTOGRAPHISCHISCHEGESEELLSCHAFT *BERLIN DONHOFS-PL ".

The picture has three boys admiring this girl. In the background is a picture of another girl. One of the boys is leaning on a stump looking at the girl and other is giving her flowers. Another is looking on.

Does anyone know anything about this. The searches I have done online have only showed two F. Lefler art pictures. Please email me directly.

I, too, have an old F. Lefler picture. I have only found Serenade and Maternal Bliss on-line. Mine is of two young boys, one playing the flute and one playing the violin, for a young girl. It is very similar to Serenade, but is in color. It is so old and starting to deteriorate in one corner that I am afraid to take it out of the frame. It was in the house my Great-Grandparents bought back in the late 1800's. It looks like a print with brush strokes sporatically over the print. Does anyone know the name of this print?
