Advice Needed - Shepard Fairey Defend Dignity Large Format, by soupy on Apr 14, 2017 14:38:00 GMT 1, agree with ling. it's yours. do what you want. in general... i would go with a thicker frame just due to the size of the print (maybe option #1 is best out of the options as the others are thinner).
are you going to float (what color backing)? or matted? if floated, i prefer a darker backing matte so that the deckled edges are accented. it doesn't have to be super dark... just not in the white/cream family. maybe match the dark or light blue coloring in the hair?
here's an example of a slight accent backing vs white on white float. i regretted doing the white on white and have since gotten rid of it.
