Subject:Found this inside my painting??????????
Posted By: Chuck Thu, Apr 14, 2016 IP: 68.231.42.77

Can anyone tell me what these two stickers say? Or are they too blurry? They were on a support board inside my painting. Also, what do the three characters in the third image here say or represent. They are on the actual painting.
Thanks,
Chuck

One of the forum's Japanese experts will need to comment on most of this, including the signature, and your picture that's shown in your earlier post. In general, though, the first label shown above is a "guarantee of quality", according to the bold kanji on the right. I believe the second label possibly explains how the stated measurements are converted to inches from the local measuring standards.

Best regards,

Bill H.

So, it's Japanese. Thanks. For some reason I was thinking Chinese.
i've attached another picture. Sorry about the glare.
Can you make any judgement at all on the quality from this image?
It's on some type of fabric. Maybe silk. And looks like an original from the paint running slightly off the sides. Are paintings of this type common? I mean really, really common? If not here, where else can I look for a translation?
