Usually the framer/gallery will have a nicer label than what I see !! The one that is on this painting is just to know who the artist was and what scene it is and the place !! My opinion is that this artist had an agreement at some time with a gallery, the gallery took a few of his works to see if they would sell, (common practice with new artists) !! The gallery would frame them,and if they sold, the gallery added the cost of the frame plus their commission and the artist got the remainder of whatever the agreed price was !! But after a time (can be 6 months or a year) and no sale the gallery removed the frame and put it back in stock and artist picked up his paintings !! So each of his consignment works would have had a tag like this to make sure sales people knew who,what, where it was ect !! Pretty much standard practice today !!
