Gallery One's 4-Step Guide to Framing Paper Art


Gallery One is renowned for its outstanding framing standards. Here’s an overview of the meticulous process they follow to frame artworks on paper.

1. Matting the Art

To ensure longevity and aesthetic appeal, artwork should be surrounded by a white, 4-ply, 100% rag mat board or its equivalent. Use special flanges to mount the art, allowing natural expansion and contraction, and ensuring easy removal without damage.

2. Protecting with Glass

Glass is essential to shield paper art. The primary role of matting is to prevent the glass from resting directly on the art. The entire frame must be larger than the artwork to accommodate expansion. Expert framers recommend wider matting than the frame to achieve visual balance.

A three-mat system is often suggested:
- Top Mat: Pale, neutral-colored rag board.
- Second Mat: A 1/4 inch accent color to enhance the artwork.
- Third Mat: A 1/4 to 1/2 inch white or off-white rag touching the art. If the artwork is signed in the image, the mat should fit insiders. If signed in the margin, leave at least a 1/2 inch border.

3. Specialty Glass

Gallery One advocates using glass that reduces glare, enhances clarity, and blocks ultraviolet light to preserve the artwork.

4. Selecting the Frame

Choose your frame with care. While metal frames suit posters and contemporary art, most pieces benefit from wood-toned or silver leaf mouldings at least 1.5 inches wide. Avoid overpowering bright gold mouldings, ensuring the frame complements rather than dominates the art.

Collectors don’t need to master framing design. Entrusting your piece to a Certified Picture Framer means you can relax, knowing it will be expertly framed for both aesthetics and preservation.
