Impressionistic Cityscape Oil Painting in Ornate Gilded Frame

This item is a framed oil on canvas painting, depicting an impressionistic or post-impressionistic scene of a waterfront urban landscape, likely European, with a bridge, buildings (possibly a cathedral like Notre Dame in the background), and figures walking along a promenade. The painting exhibits a vibrant, somewhat diffused color palette, characteristic of 'oil on canvas' as noted, with visible brushstrokes creating texture and movement, particularly in the sky and water. The dimensions are approximately 24x36 inches, including the frame, based on typical artwork sizing. The frame is a prominent feature, appearing to be made of wood with an elaborate, gilded finish, featuring ornate classical or Baroque-style relief carvings along its inner and outer edges. The gold color of the frame shows some areas of patina or possibly intentional distressing, contributing to an aged aesthetic. There are no obvious signs of significant damage to the canvas itself from the visible image, such as tears or major cracking, though the resolution limits a detailed assessment. The painting lacks clear discernible artist's signature or maker's marks in the provided view, although a small, dark signature appears in the bottom right corner, too indistinct to identify. The style suggests it could date from the late 19th to mid-20th century, consistent with the Impressionist or Post-Impressionist periods. The quality of the frame's craftsmanship appears moderate to good, complementing the painting's style. The figures in the foreground are rendered with loose brushwork, indicating motion and everyday life. The overall impression is one of an atmospheric, light-filled scene.
