Framing Suggestions & Inspiration
So you want to buy a Fine Art Print, what’s next? To frame the artwork well isn’t just a nice way to present it but it will also protect it and make it last. We can either frame it or you can use this page as a recommendation of how we would do it. There are countless ways of how to frame and present an artwork, this page describes how we prefer to do with three wooden frame options. We work with the best materials and highly skilled frame specialists in Sweden.
Material
All material used for framing and mounting are acid free and of highest quality. Solid wooden frames from Swedish forests and anti-reflective glass.
Frame
My personal choise of material for framing both the Medium and Large fine art prints would be a high quality wooden frame, for example Oiled wallnut or oak or Black-Glazed Ash. White Birch can work well for brighter motives as well but I personally prefer brown or black frames.
Mat / Passpartu
This is a matter of taste, I like framing both with and without matt and you can see the examples in the images here to the right. As for the large fine art prints they are already quite large and I think it looks nicer to frame them without mat.
Mounting
For framing…
Glass
Antireflective glass is more expensive but gives a much closer experience with the artwork, it removes unwanted reflections and protects the artwork from the rays of the sun.
UltraVue® UV92 is a reflection-free premium glass that displays radiant colors and amazing clarity and blocks 92 percent of UV light. Light reflection is reduced to less than 1%, the lowest possible reflection available. The glass enhances the brightness, contrast levels and color of artwork as a result of the optical coating combined with superior quality.
