Not a lot on it Kris. Googling produced nothing, which I thought made it 'perfect' for the thread! Appropriate that he had a history of making 3-wheeled cars. Powered only by a 45 hp Salmson 9 ADB 9-cyl, air- cooled radial.
From Janes 1962-63.

Definitely not a 500mph+ machine! But a pretty aeroplane nevertheless!

Hmm my first thought was a Heinkel such as a Heinkel He 46 but it is not a 46.

It looks very similar to the Hs 123, perhaps a Hs126?

Really interesting. I did some research and maximum speed would have been 570 km/h. In fact it's quite similar to the German He 119 but then less effective.

Yes it is. In 1940/41 "S" was modified and the rear engine and its propeller were replaced by an inert mass.
I've found other pics of the plane on skis.

Uff....
This is Владислав Константинович Грибовский's aircraft type Gribovski G-23 called Konsomlec in 1936.
On 24-27th July 1937 the plane took part in the sport aircraft race on the Moscow-Sevastopol-Moscow route.This is the aircraft in your pic.In the first cockpit the additional fuel tank was mounted in order to make its time of flight longer up to 8 hours.The cockpit was covered by a duraluminium sheet.Therefore it seems the plane was a single siter.Max speed 140-170 km/h.
There is another pic of this plane.The second one is a pic of G-23 bis.
