the four bigger characters are "江南春曉"

in which "江南" referring to "lands immediately to the south of the lower reaches of the yangtze river"

"春曉" means "mornings of the spring"

the smaller characters are "己亥初秋逸ｘ" (ｘ: not yet identified)

己亥 is one of the sexagenary cycle, in marking year, it's 2019-60i, e.g. 2019, 1959, 1899, 1839 . . .

"初秋" means early autumn

"初" is the best i can guess, might be wrong :)

"逸ｘ" is, most likely, the name of the painter.

in the seal, i suspected the right one is "茂", and, the left character is "山".

  My first guess was 己亥永秋逸之, but that didn't make any sense, so I didn't post an answer...Also the first character of the seal looks strange, never seen a shape like that before.
