As one who has, over the years, tried almost every shade, and colour, available between black and white, I have settled on off-white as the best general finish to show of monochrome prints.
When I printed in colour I usually tried to find a complimentary mount colour, and usually failed.
For our forthcoming exhibition I have selected narrow aluminium frames, because I think that they are the most unobtrusive. Together with off-white mounts I feel that they show off our prints to best advantage.
