'Lenin in Smolny' painter identity
 

Dear Friends
I am sending this email from Turkey and I request your expertise on translation or encryption of one Russian Socialist Realism artist's signiture.
Lately I owned an old 'Lenin in Smolny' painting from Turkish custom office auction, this painting looks like at least 50 or more years old. It was confiscated by custom officials from someone travelling from Ukrain or former USSR to Turkey almost six years ago, I guess due to lack of Official certification. It is oil on canvas and the size of it 140 cm by 90 cm.
Maybe the best features of this piece is it is signed by the painter not the ones which produced just for propaganda reason with no signature.
As you may see from the photos it was folded during its travelling and folding parts are lost some paint.
When I searched about the artist from the kiril alphabet it seems ' V.M? ......' My request is your help to encrypt the painter identity especialy by the Russian natives.

Thanks for your help in advance and your close interest on fine arts.

Do you have an idea?

This is a copy of the painting by Isaak Brodsky.

Yes I do know that. I think the quality of the painting considerable good.

You will forgive me.
Your picture is worth nothing.
This money, too.
