The artist with the same signature and the manner of writing in a network is found. But no evidence it does not, moreover, that he worked in the XX century. Not even clear, a German, he or American. In general, artists with the surname Schmidt lot, there are the names that start with "K", and among them are famous, but they have all the signatures are different. See http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/7534150, there and assess the work of the artist in the 200 - $ 300.

This may be a Karl Schmidt (1890-1962) - American, his signature as "similar" but more like the manner of writing, and the price is clearly nicer.

The main thing is - where is the questioner, immediately would become clearer.

Would not examples to support your words?
And it seems to me that the signature does not look like (h combined Sch spelled differently, the ending - a stroke), in addition, he signed with full name Karl, and not with the initials "K" (see embedded. 1). And the manner of writing, in my view, is clearly different: for example, U.S. Schmidt leaves on the trees everywhere is written not by a leaf, a solid mass (see 2, 3).

I wrote that the signature is not really like, like you said Schmidt (put "). In a message .- he tends to write in capital, and the point after the signature, and in 2.soobsch .- to the printing and without a point + more.
So I suggested SlaMal give more information to search for possible narrowed.

On the picture my little quadrupeds, so I gave her photos of familiar (kolektsioniruet old Bible) and asked to learn about it that is. I just know that she got it from a public emigrants in the 80's. Painting is located in Ukraine.
