Hi,
We are working with an interior designer who purchased a high end piece of pastel art. We designed the framing to include spacers & museum glass. The original pastel is on board and not paper. The designer was very happy with the finished piece. She brought it to her clients house to hang it, and after a few weeks the client has expressed how unhappy she is with the glass and glare.
Its hanging in a dinning room, above a mantel, directly across on the wall are two very large mirrors. Hanging over the dinning room table is a long modern chandelier, with pieces of mirror also in the design. On the other end of the room is a large wall of windows to an indoor/outdoor sun porch. So a lot of light sources.
I was invited to the house to see it, and suggest what we can do to improve the visibility of the artwork.
Unless you are directly in front of the pastel it is very hard to see the beauty of this artwork. I tried holding it at a slight angle to see if that would help at all, it made a slight difference but not enough.
Any suggestions?
