What does this mean?

Dear Emily,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.

The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil paint on canvas with
inches measurements. The painting has the title "Composition (Nude)" and was made by the artist Oleg PROKOFIEV (1928-1998). Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases.

Comparable objects were rarely offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 2.000 to 4.000 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.

With kind regards,
Gregory

Hello Gregory,

There is no signature, unfortunately, but I will ask for more images of the back (the painting is being stored by a relative). Best wishes, Emily
