Thank you for your request. The presented object is a painting made in oil or acrylic paint on canvas with the measurements of 45 x 33 inches. It depicts ducks landing in a pond and is signed with the name Bernard. This painting was made in the last third of the 20th century.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 100 to 250 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,

Dear Ian,
There are some prints and paintings of Bernard Martin (1912-1998) with duck motifs on the market. I doubt that he made this painting because of the quality of the painting and the style. There is a possibility that these paintings were made in Asia after European idols with a nome du plume "Bernard".
With kind regards,
Georg
