    What a strange landscape! Appears to be a fjord.

    Looks like a fjord so that must be the scene . Painting is old like to see om the backside off the linnen en I think from around the 19 hundreds painted because off the little steamer on the back ? And name off the artist would give more clues off course IMG_0439.JPG IMG_0446.JPG

    The piece of paper is part of an envelope, stamped in Vlissingen, The Netherlands. There are no mountains, let alone fjords, in The Netherlands, so it has nothing to do with the painting.
    The stamp on the paper means postage is paid, next to it is part of the coat of arms of Zeeland, the province in which Vlissingen is located.
    The words "Jessica haar beeld" mean "Jessica's statue". It could be a germanized sort of Dutch, meaning Jessica's picture. 1943 is interesting, a date? Germans in Vlissingen in 1943 would be invaders or (Jewish?) refugees.

    I think with a better and/or enhanced picture of this signature, we should be able to get this. I am not anywhere I can enhance this or would do so. I see O. Kur??n . Next to last letter might be an E.

    Got the painter on a tip from a other side and it's
    Ove Larsen (1889-1945)
    from Denmark . And he was also an artist at the famous Bing & Grondahl .
