From the origin of the picture a good guess is that it's an Arado. I don't have any more information about that picture so far. Russian is probably right about the plane.

I just took the frame apart to find out if there's anything written on the back of the picture and found some writing in hand written german letters, unfortunately I can't really read them, except the date: 1944.

Maybe it is "Bild von Arado Werke Wittenberg Lutherstadt". (picture from arado plants wittenberg lutherstadt (stadt=town))

(just guessing from that's an Arado and my grandmother lived in Wittenberg it seems quite plausible).
