The image displays the top-right corner of a framed painting, with a focus on the artwork's signature. The frame is a dark brown wood with a distinctive ribbed or reeded texture, showing a mitered corner at the top right. A thin gold-colored trim separates the frame from the light cream-colored matte. A section of the painting is visible beneath the matte. It features an earthy color palette of browns, grays, and darker tones, rendered with visible impasto brushstrokes, suggesting an oil or acrylic medium. Organic, dark shapes, possibly roots or abstract natural forms, are present on the left side of the visible canvas. The most notable detail is the signature on the painting, located towards the right. It clearly reads "A. VALDIVIA," with the initial 'A' appearing somewhat stylized. Below or adjacent to this name, the number "62" is inscribed, likely indicating the year of creation (1962). Faintly, to the right of the signature and partially within parentheses, there seems to be another inscription, possibly "(AVILA?)", though this part is less distinct. Above the painting, on the matte, a faint, brownish smudge is visible. The scene depicts a still life of an artwork against a light-colored, textured wall in what appears to be an indoor setting. No people or specific events are taking place. The artist's surname, Valdivia, is common in Peru, aligning with the given context of Arequipa, Peru, for the artwork's origin.
