Display & Care

We want you to enjoy your fine art print for many years to come. Follow these simple tips to preserve its beauty and display it like a pro:

Caring for Your Print

  • Maintain a Dry Environment: Avoid placing your print in humid areas like bathrooms or kitchens to protect it from moisture.
  • Dust Gently: Use a soft, dry cloth to lightly dust your print occasionally. Avoid cleaning sprays to prevent damage.

Framing Your Artwork

  • Acid-Free Mats Are Key: Opt for acid-free mats when framing to prevent yellowing and keep your print in pristine condition.

Hanging Tips

  • Eye-Level Hanging: Hang your artwork so the center is at eye level—around 57 to 60 inches from the floor—for optimal viewing.
  • Create a Gallery Wall: Display multiple prints as a gallery wall for a cohesive and stylish look. Keep even spacing between each piece.
  • Lighting and Placement: Find a spot with gentle lighting that complements your artwork. Avoid excessive direct sun or heat to ensure longevity.
