Framed Artwork (Reverse View with Inscriptions)

This item is the reverse side of a professionally framed piece of artwork, likely a painting or print, characterized by its sturdy construction and clear identifying marks. The outer frame is made of a silvery-grey metal, possibly aluminum, exhibiting a lean, contemporary profile designed for minimalist integration into a space. Inside this metal frame, the artwork is supported by a robust wooden stretcher frame, appearing to be crafted from light-toned wood, with visible butt joints at the corners that indicate solid assembly. A black, twisted metal picture hanging wire is securely attached to two metal D-rings or eyelets located on the upper-side stretcher bars, indicating readiness for wall display. The wire shows appropriate slack for hanging. The backing of the artwork, presumably untouched canvas or a raw backing board, shows a light, off-white or cream coloration with subtle, widespread discoloration and minor surface dust, suggesting age or environmental exposure but no significant structural damage or egregious staining. Notable identifying features include handwritten notations in black ink or marker on the wooden stretcher bars. The name "Tarbush" is clearly inscribed on the top left section of the wooden frame, and vertically again on both the bottom left and bottom right corners, accompanied by the number "10". This repeated inscription strongly suggests the artist's signature, a series name, or title, with "10" potentially indicating the year of creation (e.g., 2010) or an edition number. A white rectangular label, though illegible in the provided image, is affixed to the top stretcher bar, likely containing further provenance, artist details, or framing instructions. The overall condition suggests minor wear consistent with its age and handling, primarily superficial dust and a mild, uniform patination on the exposed wood and backing material. The framing appears to be of good quality and professional construction, designed for durable presentation and display, indicative of craftsmanship suitable for gallery or collection pieces. The style of the frame and hanging mechanism points towards a relatively modern piece, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century.
