Signed Framed Artwork by Detmer
This item is the reverse side of a small, framed piece of artwork, notable for its prominent black ink signature 'DETMER' on the lower portion of the backing board. The piece is housed in a wooden frame that appears to have an orange or light brown finish, secured with standard metal glazing points. A braided hanging wire is attached across the upper third of the back, though the mounting hardware shows some rusting and casual twisting at the ends, suggesting a contemporary or mid-late 20th-century origin. A rectangular orange barcode sticker, likely from a secondary market retailer or thrift shop, is affixed to the right side, showing a price of '$4.99'. The backing material is a light-colored paper or thin cardstock, exhibiting minor surface smudging and slight discoloration consistent with age and handling. The signature is rendered in a stylized, modern serif-like script with a distinctive elongated 'R'. While the front of the artwork is not visible in this image, the framing style and signature suggest a commercial or independent gallery output from the late 20th century. The craftsmanship is functional, typical of decor-grade framing rather than high-end museum conservation.
