Bring a long framed artwork.
We can then examine it
Take it apart
See what's inside
Discuss what is wrong or right with it
Then how we can improve the framing to a Conservation Standard
You never stop learning
Have a good day

Hi Anna, The best bet I think is to frame in a plain wood tray/float moulding you could paint gold then frame around it with an ornate gold moulding covering the back of the tray moulding, It is best to have a 5mm gap on each side of the canvas and choose a tray moulding that keeps the painting surf...
