The back of the card.  This version of the card was printed about 1902 based on the design of the card's back.  Carte Postale is written in capitalized block letters with no period at the end and Import is spelled "Jmport".  On the front of the card we see Axel Eliassons Konstförlag, Stockholm No 3045 which is typical of his cards.
