Large Silver Frame

Large Silver Frame Details

V850 is a silver wood picture frame featuring Federal-style silver frame profile. Its 3-1/8 inch face and 1-5/8 inch overall moulding height give the profile its characteristic scale and contour.

The 3-1/8 inch face makes Large Silver Frame a substantial border around the artwork. At this broader scale, its profile and finish become active parts of the presentation rather than a narrow outline at the perimeter.

Large Silver Frame has a 1-5/8 inch overall moulding height, establishing the side silhouette created by Federal-style silver frame profile. Its 3/4 inch usable rabbet and approximately 1/4 inch lip coverage describe the working space behind the opening. As a standard frame, the lip overlaps the front edge of the artwork or framing package.

Works Visually With

Large Silver Frame can complement wedding photographs, black-and-white photography, invitations, diplomas, prints, and contemporary artwork. The restrained profile of Large Silver Frame serves as a clear image boundary, with its exact face width determining whether it reads as a fine outline or a more visible surround.

For works on paper, mat color and border width can create separation between the image and Large Silver Frame, especially when a dark frame should remain distinct from the darkest image values.

Design and Visual Character

In the past, artists such as Albert Bierstadt went on plein aire voyages to paint grand scenes in a realistic style.

On Large Silver Frame, the relationship between its face, inner edge, and outside contour determines how strongly this profile separates the artwork from the surrounding wall.

The 3-1/8 inch face and 1-5/8 inch overall height define the proportions of Large Silver Frame. Its front view remains restrained, while this moulding's outside contour becomes more apparent from an angled view.
