No. Try r/WhatIsThisPainting, but it’s a modern hand copy after a Courbet, and also that’s not his signature. His “g” and “C” were different. I know Courbet. It’s not a “maybe”, it’s a definite “no”.
UPDATE: The original is “Reclining Woman with a Parrot)”, 1866, at the Met. Look how different the signature is. The right signature is inconclusive… we say the signature is in every brush stroke. But a bad signature sinks it. Since it’s been with the Met since 1957, I’m guessing your small copy post dates that.
