George Forss Photographs of the Twin Towers Framing Project

We enjoyed the opportunity to frame two striking photographs by NYC photographer George Forss, including “The Way We Were” of the World Trade Center Twin Towers, with the Queen Elizabeth II sailing by.

They feature museum-quality glass over a double-mat, and a slightly beveled black frame.

When it’s time to frame, it’s time for the best,

How and When to Use Floater Frames

Floater Frames: How and Why

Sturdy describes the difference between traditional frames and floater frames. This popular option creates the effect of a painting floating within the frame, which some customers prefer when reframing a work of art or picture.

The large painting shown is “Quilt Face at a Party” by Mia Cross.

Ryan describes how floater frames can be the solution for when you want a simple, casual or minimalist look, or are limited in space but don’t want the unfinished look of hanging a painting without a frame.
