How do I hang a heavy framed lithograph?

Ensure your wall fixings are secured directly into wall studs or use appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors designed for plaster and brick. Hang the frame from two points rather than a single central wire to keep the piece level and reduce stress on the original hanging hardware.

Can I clean the glass on these old frames?

Use a soft microfiber cloth lightly misted with a mild glass cleaner, applying the liquid to the cloth rather than spraying directly onto the glass. This prevents moisture from seeping beneath the rebate and damaging the antique paper print or the backing materials.

Are these prints originals from the period?

The inventory consists of period printings and contemporary plates issued during the active dates of the publications and artists represented. Examining the paper stock, printing dot patterns and framing construction helps confirm the production era of each individual piece.

Where should I display framed lithographs at home?

Select interior walls that remain away from direct sunlight and damp conditions to protect the paper and framing materials from fading and deterioration. Hallways, studies and living rooms offer suitable environments where the character of the artwork can be appreciated safely.
