When we have bought prints and watercolours we have invested quite a lot of time (and money) in choosing the mounts and frames – we always seem to end up with the most expensive option! When it comes my own photos I haven’t had that many framed, but would tend towards something plain and simple for something that I was going to hang on my wall. My local framer offers a plain wood frame that he will stain to match the darkest tone of the image – very handy for lith and toned prints. I’ve only used this once for a lith print that we bought, but it seemd to work well and the recipient was pleased with the result.
