Framed Fine Art Prints
A framed fine art print combines premium art paper with a solid-wood frame and protective clear acrylic. Depending on the selected presentation, a mat can add a refined border between the artwork and the frame.
What You Are Ordering
Fine-Art Paper
Your artwork is reproduced as a high-quality paper print intended for detailed, gallery-style presentation.
Protective Acrylic
Clear optical-grade acrylic protects the print while remaining lighter and more shipping-friendly than traditional glass.
Mat & Wood Frame
The mat, when selected, creates visual breathing room around the image before the piece is completed with its outer wood frame.
Framing That Matches the Gallery
Our reference collection stays close to the framing already represented in the gallery: black and white outer frames with clean, complementary mat presentations.
Black Frame + Light Mat
Classic contrast that separates the artwork from a dark outer frame.
White Frame + Dark Mat
A modern reverse-contrast presentation for artwork that benefits from a stronger inner border.
What the Mat and Acrylic Do
The mat adds space around the image and can make the artwork feel more formal and dimensional. The clear acrylic sits in front of the print and mat to help protect the paper surface from dust and handling while reducing the breakage risk associated with conventional glass.
Framed Fine Art FAQ
How is a framed fine art print different from a framed canvas?
A fine art print is printed on art paper and presented behind protective clear acrylic. A framed canvas is printed on canvas, stretched over wood bars and displayed without glazing.
What is a mat?
A mat is a separate board placed around the artwork inside the frame. It creates visual space between the image and the outer frame and gives the finished piece a more traditional gallery presentation.
Is the mat the same as a printed border?
No. A printed border is part of the paper image. A mat is a physical framing layer that sits in front of the print and surrounds the visible image area.
What framing combinations are offered?
The reference collection centers on black and white frames with complementary light or dark mat presentations, closely matching the frame-and-border choices already used in the gallery.
Why is acrylic used instead of glass?
Clear acrylic protects the artwork while being lighter and less prone to shattering during handling and shipping than conventional glass.
Does adding a mat make the finished piece larger?
Yes. A mat adds width around the visible artwork, so the final outside frame dimensions are larger than the image area alone. The amount depends on the selected print size and compatible mat width.
Is the print mounted inside the frame?
The print is secured using a compatible professional mounting method selected for the frame and glazing configuration so it remains properly positioned inside the finished piece.
Will the framed print arrive ready to hang?
The finished frame is configured with appropriate hanging hardware for its size and construction. The exact hardware may vary depending on the final framed dimensions and weight.
How should I clean the acrylic?
Use a clean, soft microfiber cloth and light pressure. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh household cleaners that may scratch or cloud the acrylic surface.
Will every frame and mat look exactly like the on-screen illustration?
The illustrations explain the construction and presentation. Actual proportions, mat width, frame profile and final dimensions can vary slightly with the artwork size and production configuration.
