Any original artwork or print on paper is fragile and can be damaged easily. I recommend framing your prints, both to enhance the artwork and to protect it.
To price my art prints affordably and keep the shipping costs down to a minimum, my prints are sold unframed and unmatted.
The images of the prints on display in the Redwine Art Gallery are representative of how they are printed on 11x14" paper, with the white, unprinted borders .
They do look good unmatted in a standard 11x14 sized picture frame. On the other hand, they can look even better in a larger frame, like 16x20" with custom matting.
Custom framing can complement the artwork, and the space intended for display as well. When determining matt opening size, consider allowing for enough of the white paper border to show around the printed image, allowing the signature and limited edition numbers to remain visible.
Frame your art if you want to display it, otherwise, I recommend keeping your print in it's protective plastic envelope and storing your art in a cool, dark spot, flattened and protected from damage.
