Tracey Emin 'My Heart is with you Always' - Frame Size, by Hubble Bubble on Nov 25, 2015 13:19:40 GMT 1, Greetings my fellow forumites
I've decided to start my daughters' art collections with a modest acquisition… a Tracey Emin 'My Heart is with you Always' signed poster each. (Mrs HB might get one if she plays her cards right  )
To save hours of research etc… can anyone that's already framed this image advise of an off the shelf (Habitat/Heals/Ikea) frame that will contain them and perhaps allow for a narrow mount around the image?
Many thanks
HB

Also, pretty sure Habitat have a 25% off sale at the moment. I think it was the dark birch frame, but if interested I will find out for sure.

Tracey Emin 'My Heart is with you Always' - Frame Size, by p4ryd on Nov 25, 2015 14:45:33 GMT 1, I also have 3 Emin prints that need framing and have been looking. How dark is birch? It looks black (which I would prefer) on the images.
Looks like they also do a 50x70 frame which is the size of the print.

Yeah, as you say it's nearly black. I went for 60x80 over the 50x70 so I could mount over the text that is at the bottom of the poster. Not sure if the 50x70 would have covered it.

Please don't go out of your way… just the next time you're passing with a tape measure
Thanks again
Hubble
EDIT --- I see from a previous post you specified a 50mm mount all around… so I'm guessing that's a 60 x 80 cm mount board cut to a 5cm border? Apologies for not seeing this.

That way I can either just buy mount board and have it cut by framers or ask framers to cut and supply.

Just checked and it has an aperture of 48x68 so a 6cm border(5.5cm showing). I went for a slightly smaller aperture, so I could hide the text at the bottom of poster. Hope that makes sense
