art portrait oil painting– what does aag stand for?

My grandfather recently passed away and left us an oil painting that is supposedly of value. It is probably from the 1800s and probably from europe, neither of which we really know though. It has the initials A. A. G. posted on it. Does anybody have any idea what or who aag stands for?

Thanks!
