What you have is an Irrawaddy delta scene by a fairly well known and prolific local Burmese artist, Lar Ban, a.k.a. "Muang" (an honorific, 'younger brother' I think) Lar Ban. He was painting from around the 1930's through at least the early 1980's, when I was there with the American Embassy.
Here's one of his watercolors that brighten my walls. I noticed information at the links below as well as some hits on pinterest and other web locations. I'd suggest you continue the search.
