an image in strange framing...
inspired by the discussion here on APUG about framing/matting, I thought I'd show an idea I got..
I went to an auction site and bought some 120 years old mahogany mirrors..
took out the mirror - turned the frame upside down, and made this print to the custom size.
Painted with light.
Liquid emulsion on VERY heavy paper.
brown toned and "hand coloured" using coffee/cigarette ashes and such stuff.
does it work?
the size is (with framing) about 120cm high and 45cm wide..
