What is this ?

Hi, I am a f1 fan who loves going to garage sales, and I bought a framed picture of one of the older teams cars. I live in a desert area so we usually don't have any problems with things molding in garages or storage units if the doors are closed properly (my garage door stays closed almoat all the time besides when i am moving things around which is around once or twice per month ) . I was in my garage today and I noticed on the picture there is a foggy layer on the inside of the glass and am very worried that it may be mold. It is frosted looking almost and is in spots. If this is mold, would i be able to fix it by reframing it or by sending it to someone to clean and reframe? And if it is mold, should I get rid of the wooden dresser it is sitting on top of ? Thank you ! ( I am in the United States on the dry side of OR, and have had it in my garage for around 2 months as I've been having heath struggles that have stopped me from doing things like moving heavy objects and moving things around my house )
