Note from the past

 

Took another look at the painting today - still amazing colours and the look of something ancient - after searching the internet for information on the artist - the time had come for a closer look at the backside - however not much to see - except from the old piece of paper at the bottom of the frame backside.

Well you tell me... at first sight it is possible to determin something was written a long time ago - the photo does not give much - so I guess a second look at the remains of the original writing in a different light setting will be the next step.
