I believe this painting was done by R. Cahoon. His signature is in the lower right-hand corner. I haven't been able to find the title. I don't know if it's an original painting or a signed print.
24 inches wide 17 1/2 tall
I got this at a garage sale. The owners traveled to Cape Code for decades and had many Cape Cod items for sale. This sale was in an upscale area.
