Can You Frame A Print Without A Mat?
Absolutely, you can frame a print without a mat. Matting is often used to enhance the appearance of the artwork and protect it from touching the glass, but it is not always necessary. Framing without a mat gives a sleek, modern look and can allow more focus on the artwork itself. It's ideal for pieces where the whole image is important, or for large pieces where a mat might be overwhelming or costly. When framing without a mat, it's crucial to ensure that your print is securely mounted to avoid any movement within the frame. The Sydney Art Store offers a range of high-quality frames and framing accessories to help you achieve a professional finish.
Frames and Artistic Preservation
Artwork is vulnerable to the effects of time, but a quality frame ensures its longevity while enhancing its presentation. Frames provide essential protection against dust, fading, and physical wear, preserving the integrity of the piece for years to come. They also contribute to the artwork’s narrative, emphasising its theme or mood through complementary designs and materials. For example, sleek, modern frames amplify the minimalist beauty of abstract pieces, while ornate, vintage frames underscore the elegance of classical works. Beyond aesthetics, frames help structure the viewing experience by focusing attention on the artwork itself. Frames are indispensable in creating lasting impressions and safeguarding artistic creations.

Understanding the variety of frame options available can help you choose the perfect one to suit your artwork. Simple, understated frames are versatile and work well with photographs, prints, or modern pieces. Float frames stand out as a favorite for canvases, creating the illusion that the artwork is suspended within the frame. For traditional artwork or classic themes, wooden frames with rich stains or natural finishes bring warmth and sophistication. Beyond aesthetics, the type of frame you choose should enhance the artwork without overwhelming it. Float frames are an excellent choice for contemporary displays, as they allow the edges of the piece to remain visible, adding depth and elegance to your presentation.
