Framing

Traditional mounting &
Conventional framing

This is where the artwork sits behind a bevelled cut window mount. The frame sits over the edge of the mount.
Box framing
So called because the finished frame is in fact a box with a glass front. The artwork is kept away from the glass by a fillet. This method of framing is suitable for works which have been floated onto the mount and three dimensional pieces.

Framing canvases
Traditionally the canvas is placed against the
rebate of the frame. Other ways to frame canvases include butted level, gap and forward as illustrated below.
