Looks to be an oil painting. It is signed but I'm not sure what it says. The dimensions are 18 inches by 12 inches not including the frame. With the frame it is 24.5 x 15.5 inches. I don't believe the painting has any damage. The frame has some chipping.

Hi Sarah, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. I can't make out the signature either but even without knowing who the artist is, this is a very nice work with considerable decorative merit. If you can figure out the signature, or tell me what you think it looks like, I will be happy to reconsider my appraisal and valuation. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: Dutch School, 18th or 19th Century Winter landscape with ice skaters on a river oil on canvas signed indistinctly lower left 12 by 18 inches, in a frame 15 1/2 by 24 1/2 inches CONDITION: appears to be in good condition PROVENANCE: inherited $1,000-1,500* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
