Still-life 17th century?
Hello . Please help to assess the picture. Oil on canvas , while writing about the late 17th early 18th century. In the lower right corner of the picture is vaguely discernible signature hudozhnika.pervaya letter J. At the bottom of the picture to the left of the vase , clear monogram hu. Nor on the back of the canvas, or on the front there are no extraneous labels or markings . Presumably the picture was taken from East Prussia in 1945.
The picture has darkened greatly . In the background , a forest or park in the twilight of sunset. The lower part of the vase resembles an inverted bowl and forms a vignette (possibly with the colored inscription). One gets the impression that the lower part of the canvas was cut to 10-15 cm
