Translation of a painting's signature, ink + gold (Characters identified: 日本製略曆)
The characters are:


  日本製 (Japan made) 略(brief/ rough) 曆 (Calendar)


I am not quite sure what '略曆' (brief Calendar) means. I have never heard of this term. My guess is, it is an old term (may be Japanese only) for '月曆' (monthly calendar) which is brief in details, unlike '日曆' (daily calendar) which list much more detailed information about each day on the Calendar

This painting might be the original art work for reproduction on a calendar
