1. A system for mounting a framed image on a mounting surface, the system comprising:
a mounting plate and a receptacle, wherein the receptacle is fixedly placed into a rabbet area of a frame of the framed image, the receptacle being positioned behind an image of the framed image, and wherein a shape and size of the receptacle are designed for removably placing the receptacle onto the mounting plate;
wherein the receptacle is located in a cut-out at or near a center of a solid-core substrate,
wherein the receptacle is fixedly attached into the cut-out using a coupling plate that locks the receptacle into the cut-out with the solid-core substrate between the coupling plate and the receptacle,
wherein there is a means for fixedly attaching the solid-core substrate in the rabbet area whereby a back surface of the solid-core substrate is even with one or more back edges of the frame,
wherein the mounting plate defines a bull's-eye opening at a center of the mounting plate, the bull's eye opening being configured for aligning the mounting plate over a predetermined point on the mounting surface,
wherein the mounting plate contains a means for leveling the mounting plate on the mounting surface before the mounting plate is removably adhered to the mounting surface,
wherein the shape and size of the receptacle, and an orientation of the receptacle, allow the framed image to be level on the mounting surface when mounted onto a level mounting plate, and
wherein one or both of the receptacle or the mounting plate has a means for preventing the receptacle from sliding off the mounting plate.
