What does this mean?

Good evening, Rachel,
Thank you for submitting your appraisal inquiry to Mearto.
I am having difficulty interpreting the signature despite your very good detail photograph of it. Any thoughts or suggestions on who the artist might be? Without some guidance, I might need to evaluate this without an artist attribution.
Many thanks!

Hi ! Unfortunately I have no idea-my husband acquired it from someone who may have gotten it from a consignment shop over 20 years ago -other than that -that’s all I got :) thanks so much for your help
