FWIW, I'd also like to see how others here display their paintings. Whether or not to frame it (and how to frame it) is an interesting and valid concern. A big decision, to say the least... and a great question for those here who have that experience.
I once had a magnificent Andy Jurinko original of Jackie Robinson... and the dilemma over all the potential framing options made my head spin. I ended up selling the painting, as I needed to raise money. But I still remember the agony over whether to frame it, potential costs, and what type of frame would best compliment the painting.

I agree completely.
I wanted to view this thread because I just opened an office and have been thinking about buying a great piece of artwork. Although I have no particular interest in Vander Meer, the emotion that painting evokes of the era and the men who played the game is almost overwhelming. What a joy it woyld be to go to my office every day and be able to gaze upon something like that. Scott of right should be proud of it. It is a remarkable piece.
On tge subject...anyone know what kind of ballpark price such a piece costs when commisioned?
