Framing

  • All prints and original paintings may be purchased unframed, matted, or framed.
  • Please allow up to 3 weeks for your framed order, although usually we ship within days.
  • Unframed prints are mounted on illustration board using archival corners and are sealed in clear poly bags. Artist statement and gallery card are included.
  • Framed prints are matted in a neutral archival mat with acid-free art paper liner, backed with acid-free foam core, glazed with Plexiglas. We use black Nielsen metal frames. Your print is ready to hang, with a plastic-coated copper wire across back. Artist statement and gallery card are attached on reverse.
  • Wood frames usually include glass glazing
  • Framed canvas giclees are mounted on heavy illustration board and framed in Nielsen metal, with optional mat and Plexiglas glazing (additional cost).
  • Please contact us prior to ordering to confirm availability of your canvas giclee.
  • Please note: Occasionally mats are discontinued by the manufacturer.  If you are trying to MATCH a previous or current order, and wish them to have identical mats, please let us know and we will try our best to be sure they match.
  • Special orders are welcomed.  Please ask for pricing.
  • Custom plaques can be incorporated into mat with extra openings
  • See below for University of Iowa Commemorative brass plaque (ordered separately) and Old Capitol Edition frame choices.  Please email for this option.
  • Everything that touches your print is “acid-free,” “archival,” or “conservation quality” to protect your art.
  • For the most superior art protection we recommend museum grade plexiglass (UV protection) which incurs an additional cost.
