Riverside Dock Landscape Painting

This is a horizontal landscape painting executed in what appears to be oil or acrylic on canvas, depicting a tranquil riverside or canal scene. The composition features several small motorboats and cabin cruisers moored along the banks of a narrow waterway, surrounded by lush green deciduous trees. The foreground is dominated by a weathered wooden dock with a coiled rope and a small cleat detail. The color palette centers on natural greens, soft blues, and earthy browns, suggesting a clear, calm day. The painting technique utilizes visible brushstrokes and impasto texture particularly in the foliage and water reflections, indicative of a mid-to-late 20th-century impressionistic style. The artwork is housed in a substantial wooden frame with a gilded inner beaded lip and a cove profile. Condition-wise, the frame shows noticeable wear including scuffs, surface abrasions, and some loss of finish on the left edge. The canvas itself shows some potential surface grime and small dark spots (likely foxing or insect debris) in the upper right quadrant within the tree canopy. No visible signature is immediately apparent in this view, though one may be present under the frame's rebate.
