Dear customer, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry and we wish you a Happy New Year 2022. My sincere apologies for the huge delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil paint on canvas with the measurements of 31 x 22 inches. The painting depicts a woman breastfeeding her baby in front of a dresser with a mirror, a tin jug, and a vase with flowers. This painting is signed in Cyrillic letters. The reading is not complete clear. It could be translated "D. Borov..." and could be interpreted as "Borovsky" or "Borovski". The painting is dated with (19)41. There is no established artist named in reference books or auction result databases. The dating 1941 is not adaptable with David Borisovich BOROVSKY (1926-2004) and also the signature. Borovsky is an often name in Russia. Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 300 to 700 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
