Framed Coastal Scene Painting of Sitges, Spain

This is a horizontal rectangular landscape painting, likely an oil or high-quality acrylic on canvas, depicting the beach and the Church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla in Sitges, Spain. The composition features a foreground filled with small wooden fishing boats (dories) beached on a sandy shore. Each boat is uniquely colored in shades of white, teal, and burgundy. Behind the boats, a row of colorful beach umbrellas sits before a dense line of palm trees. The background is dominated by the iconic coastal church architecture under a blue sky with fluffy white cumulus clouds. The painting is housed in an ornate, gold-toned composite or gilded wood frame featuring acanthus leaf corner ornaments and a scalloped inner bead. The brushwork appears somewhat impressionistic with visible texture, particularly in the sky and sand. A signature is visible in the lower-left corner in a dark red pigment, though it is partially obscured by the frame's lip. The item shows minor age-related wear on the frame's gilding, but the canvas appears well-tensioned without visible cracking or pigment loss. The style suggests a late 20th-century decorative piece, possibly sold as a high-end souvenir or gallery piece, exhibiting good technical skill in light and shadow work.
