Seascape Still Life Oil Painting

This is an oil painting depicting a still life scene set against a window overlooking a body of water, likely the sea or a large lake. The painting is rectangular and framed in what appears to be a light-colored, possibly bleached or limed wood frame with a simple, slightly stepped profile. The dominant colors in the painting are various shades of blue, white, and earthy tones for the foliage and fruit. The scene features a checkered tablecloth, rendered in white with broad blue stripes, on which rests a white pitcher or jug with blue geometric patterns, and a clear glass vase containing a vibrant arrangement of flowers in shades of yellow, orange, and red. A plate holding a whole apple and two apple halves is also visible on the table. To the left, a portion of an armchair or similar furniture is visible, along with foliage climbing or growing nearby. Through the window, a serene blue seascape with a distant horizon and possibly some indistinct landmasses is depicted. The brushstrokes appear expressive, indicating an impressionistic or post-impressionistic style. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures in the provided image. The paint surface appears to be in good condition, with no obvious cracks, chips, or major abrasions, though some minor surface dirt might be present, consistent with its likely age. The frame also seems to be in good condition, showing minimal wear. The overall craftsmanship suggests a competent, possibly amateur or hobbyist artist, given the slightly simplified forms and less refined details compared to masterworks. The painting likely dates to the mid-2to late-20th century, given the style and framing choice.
