Frames
When selecting frames for botanical prints, several factors must be considered to ensure that the artwork is displayed effectively and preserved for years to come. The choice of frame can significantly impact the overall aesthetic of the print and the environment in which it is displayed.
First, it is essential to consider the dimensions of the print. Standard frame sizes include 8x10 inches, 11x14 inches, and 16x20 inches. However, custom framing options are also available for prints that do not conform to these dimensions. It is advisable to measure the print accurately before purchasing a frame to avoid any discrepancies.
Next, the material of the frame plays a crucial role in both durability and visual appeal. Common materials include wood, metal, and plastic. Wooden frames offer a classic look and can be stained or painted to match the decor of the room. Metal frames provide a modern aesthetic and are often more durable, while plastic frames are lightweight and cost-effective.
Additionally, the color and finish of the frame should complement the botanical print. Neutral colors such as black, white, or natural wood tones tend to work well with a variety of artworks, allowing the print to remain the focal point. Conversely, a bold color frame can create a striking contrast, but it is essential to ensure that it does not overshadow the artwork itself.
In summary, purchasing frames for botanical prints involves careful consideration of size, material and color. By adhering to these guidelines, one can enhance the beauty of botanical art while ensuring its longevity and preservation.
