I thought I had bought this painting out of my inventory from a Ukranian dealer when I was buying paintings from there, but the signature doesn't look Cyrillic to me. At any rate, it is a fine, happy scene of a pond or small lake, with a rivulet running into it in the foreground and a house on a small peninsula that juts out into the lake. Judging from the canvas and stretcher, it was painted in Europe sometime in the early to mid-20th century. Beautiful and affordable!
