Probably unpopular take: I don't like framing paintings. Works I like enough to put on my wall are usually objects I consider perfect in a way where adding something would detract from it.
Was spurred to verbalize this after seeing this van Gogh on tumblr. Away with that frame!!

I don't get picture frames. Why would you take a work of art and then slap another thing around it? I want art on my wall, not art inside another thing on my wall. While I get glass for protection and a structure to hold the glass on top, anything more is just excessive.
