How do I hang antique prints safely?

Antique paper and prints require placement away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the hand-coloured pigments and paper degradation. Using professional picture hangers suited to the weight of the frame ensures secure wall placement. Maintaining stable room humidity protects both the paper and the wooden or giltwood frames from warping or cracking over time.

What is a reverse glass print?

A reverse glass print involves applying an ink or paint image directly onto the reverse side of a glass sheet. When viewed from the front, the glass provides a protective and glossy finish. This technique was popular for decorative portraits and religious or allegorical scenes during the eighteenth century.

How should I clean antique frames?

Dusting gently with a soft, dry brush is the safest method for maintaining carved wooden and giltwood frames. Moisture can damage old gilding and nineteenth-century varnishes. Avoid using modern chemical cleaners, as they strip the historical finishes from the wood.

Are these paintings original period pieces?

The listings comprise works originating from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, executed by period artists and printmakers. Materials such as pine panels, laid paper, and early canvases align with these production dates. Checking the framing style and medium helps confirm the historical context of each wall art piece.
