Framed Artwork Verso with Framer's Label and Inventory Number

This item is the verso (backside) of a framed artwork or print, specifically focusing on the backing paper and frame structure. The primary observable component is the beige or light brown colored backing paper, which appears to be a type of heavy-duty paper or cardboard (likely acid-free matboard or archival backing for art). It exhibits a slightly textured, somewhat matte finish with scattered specks and minor discoloration, suggesting age and typical environmental exposure. In the lower central portion, there is a prominent rectangular label, dark gold or brass-colored, with black lettering. The label reads 'ART et TECHNIQUE' at the top, followed by a stylized handwritten signature 'François Derlon' and beneath that, 'CHARTRES'. This label identifies the professional establishment responsible for the framing or possibly the artwork itself. Below this label, a series of purple, stenciled numbers '115566' are visible, likely an inventory or catalogue number assigned by the framer or gallery. The number's purple hue and stencil application indicate a consistent internal system. The edges of the backing paper are slightly worn, with some fraying or minor tears visible, particularly along the top right. A section of the wooden frame, light brown in color with a visible grain, is present along the bottom and right edges of the image, indicating the structural support for the framed piece. The wood appears to be finished but shows no significant damage. The overall condition of the backing indicates typical wear associated with an item that has been handled over time, but no major structural damage or significant degradation is apparent. The craftsmanship of the label application appears professional.
