Morning Sign
DESCRIPTION
Archival ink on museum-quality cotton rag paper | 2021
A collection of images that represent intimacy and joy, the new series from photographer James Needham takes a step back from the individual elements that make up a scene. By retreating from those simple lines, shapes, and colors that are the usual focus of his camera, Needham creates images seemingly from nowhere that immediately feel comfortable and familiar. Announcement to an Empty Street is an exploration of that concept of “magical confusion” author F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote about — of seeing “one city within another.” Vibrant hues juxtapose with a smattering of run-down buildings and crooked road signs across America to create this “magical confusion” for viewers, instilling a sense of delight when places previously unfamiliar become joyfully familiar, like meeting someone you feel you’ve known your whole life.

Framing & Mounting
Framing
Our frames are produced from the best quality wood, primarily from Italy. Each is custom cut and assembled by hand to fit your art. Hanging hardware included!
THIN GALLERY FRAME
This modern profile was designed for artists and photographers. Narrow on the front and deep on the sides, our slim mouldings provide a clean, sharp frame for your art, and allows all focus to be on your gorgeous work.
3/4" wide; 1 1/8" deep
UV - PROTECTIVE ACRYLIC
Our acrylic is more expensive than glass, but we use it because it’s clearer, far more impact resistant, and protects your art against UV rays. Framing-grade acrylic has become a new standard in framing because of its “clear” benefits.
THE FULL BLEED
Works are framed flush with the edge of your print without a mat. Request border modifications and spacers, which keep the work from touching the glass.
THE MAT
Adds a white core mat with a bevel cut opening to the edge of your print. If your work has a signature or edition numbering, we will automatically mat around it unless otherwise specified.
We use 4-ply, conservation-grade, acid-free mat board. We match whites and off-whites to your exact piece. Acid-free materials protect your art from yellowing or becoming brittle.
THE FLOAT
Floating a piece allows for a full view of the face and sides of the artwork. Floating is recommended for original drawings and paintings or any piece produced on specially trimmed paper.
