I don't know much about paintings, but the paint is in good condition, I don't see any cracks.
The frame seems to be of good quality.
These two factors indicate the painting was valued or at least cared for (wich is often a good sign).
It might need a bit of restoration though. All these oil on canvas darken with time. Restoration will certainly make the signature apparent.
The style makes me think of a Dutch artist.
