What does this mean?

This is a framed image of two putti or cherubs sleeping. Though it appears like an original painting, this is a printed image, mounted on wood which was then painted over with a surface varnish to appear like an original painting. The signature appears to have possibly been added on over the varnish and has since faded and become illegible. This is a 20th century framed decorative wall art piece that was possibly produced in China and exported. The estimate is based on actual recent past auction sales of comparables.
