Black frame sounds good, I agree. And use light neutral shades for mats, you can seek advice from the framer and try a few shades to see which one you like better. Make sure the framer uses acid-free mats. Also, your glass should have UV protection. If not, you may want to replace the glass as well. Enjoy this beautiful artwork!... Raisa

Go to Michaels or hobby lobby they sell frames and really beautiful ones pick one that fits with the glass you have

Be sure to use archival quality materials for the framing. I suspect that the print is valuable and suggest that you contact a local museum for suggestions of framers in your area. They should know the appropriate way to display this piece. You might also Google the artist and see how others have framed their piece.

asvinteriors, were you thinking of something like that?

Thank you all for your advice, Suzanne your photos looks fantastic! Do you think it is okay to cover up the title plate below and the addition number? Or should I have it matted to include those things ?

No, I think it is not ok to cover it. It's just that it was easier for me to photoshop without it. BTW if you go to Michaels for framing, wait until they have a sale 40, 50 or 60% off as it is quite expensive to frame an art. Here, in Canada, Michaels has sale quite often.

thanks suzanne-m exactly what I had in mind (perhaps without the yellow inner frame)

I think your print would look amazing with a dark/black frame, with a soft white or ivory mat. If this is too simple, I like to add a 2nd inner mat in a color pulled from the art itself. This gives it just enough oomph to be interesting, while still allowing the print to take center stage. This also allows the art to work in any room with any color scheme.

asvinteriors, I agree, it looks a lot nicer without the yellow inner frame.

Oops, I forgot to attach this photo of where the title plate is and artists signature and addition number. If I include these I will still have a yellowy inner border

If you have a professional framer locally, or can find one as suggested above, discuss the issue of covering up the printing at the bottom with them as whenever you cover up the edges of a print, there will be an outline from the light reaching the exposed area versus the area covered by the mat. I recommend verifying the value of the print before reframing. It may not be worth much or it could be worth a lot and incorrect framing could hurt the value, (I once asked the upholsterer if he could remove the little caster wheels in the bottom of my great aunt's chair and he recoiled in horror that I would ruin the value, and by the way, it was worth over $3k. S better to check things out (eBay anyone?) and be safe then sorry. If it is valuable it's best to invest in an acid free mat and glass that protects from UV. If its not, any approach is fair game.

cjohnston, I did a new photoshop of lisa's frame. Is it what you had in mind?

what a fab picture a frame can make or break a picture so to speak

can we see where you have the picture hung and will frames being advised go with others you may have so love the picture but think i already said that

I don't have it hanging up anywhere now. The rest of my artwork have simple clean black frames. I really love the way it looks matted close to the image But the piece is valuable so it seems i need to include the artists signature and writing down below.

it seems i need to include the artists signature and writing down below. yes think it would be good to do this good luck with the choice of frame so you may continue loving it for the next 24 years

I agree you need to keep the artist's signature. I think the artist's signature should be treated as if it is a part of the print and if you put a mat, it should not cover the signature. I believe the framing store would cut a slot through the mat to show the text below the print. If you go to a framing store, they are professionals and they deal with that all the times. They will be able to recommend something.

Yes, suzanne_m, love it! that's exactly what I had in mind.

A wise Houzzer said "if the paneling is good wood don't' paint it. If it cheeeeep wood, do what you want." As for framing a signed/numbered art - go for the pro framer for advice and managing your art investment, not a big box store. Ask around for recommendations.....also, you will have more options with pro frame shop. Ask abt the proper glass to max the life of this great piece.
