Spanish Art Label Appraisal

Art Provenance Label (Spanish)

This item is a provenance label or a registration tag, affixed to the reverse side of what appears to be a piece of art, likely a painting given the visible canvas texture in the background. The label is made of aged, light-colored paper, rectangular in shape, and shows signs of discolouration, likely from age and exposure. The edges exhibit some wear and a slight curling, indicating its age and the method of its attachment. The background material is coarse-weave canvas, discolored with various dirt, dust, and water marks, suggesting the artwork has been stored in less than ideal conditions over a prolonged period. The label displays printed fields ('Made in Spain', 'Nombre de la obra', 'Autor', 'Nacionalidad', 'Fecha y lugar de nacimiento', 'Estudios', 'Premios') with handwritten information filled into each, indicating details about the artist and their work. A prominent 'REGISTERED' stamp in black ink is visible, partially obscuring the 'Made in Spain' text, and there is a stamped number '099557' within a rectangular box, likely a registration or inventory number. The handwriting, in what appears to be black ink, is cursive and somewhat faded but mostly legible. The visible condition suggests this item has been affixed to the artwork for a significant period, potentially since its creation or initial registration, making it a crucial piece of historical and provenance information. The 'Made in Spain' and 'REGISTERED' marks suggest an official process, potentially for export, exhibition, or sale.
