Can you help me identify this symbol?

[Flarish]

Hey guys! I just need a little help with a symbol really fast if possible! Can anyone help me? I know it look a numerical 4 or 6 but I don't know why there is a line in the middle of the "V" and what it means. Can anyone help me? Thank you!

I don't know why there is a line in the middle of the "V" and what it means.

Maybe the chisel slipped.

I can't because it's not really a map. It's a painting.

Can't you post a picture of the painting? If it's just art, then the extra stroke may just be because the artist thought it looked better that way?

Does the artwork have a title and/or painter's name?
