About this work

This is a faded handwritten note on yellowed paper. The words are in Romanian, written in a loose, uneven script. There’s a circled number "119" in the top right corner, and some numbers and letters scrawled in the lower corners, like "1931" and "G.G. 107.639/186." The note mentions a church in Salonici (Salonica) and the year 1931. It looks like a catalog or inventory entry, not an actual painting. The handwriting feels old, like it’s been stored away for a long time. If you’re curious about where this might belong, check out the Museum of Ethnography.
