Deer, help identify the author and evaluate picture
 

Good day!

Help to identify and evaluate the author's picture!

Painted on canvas with oil.

1.
Amateur painting.

2.
Old (not later than the first quarter of the XIX century), most likely - authenticity.

If you try to remove the signature with no glare, I think - easily readable.
Although this will have little effect (see paragraph 1).

And if this picture is of any value?
If so, what is its value?
