That cobb image is wonderful. I cannot stop looking at it. Is it a BAIN? Where did you get that stock image Sean? There are a lot of seemingly strong personalities in that photo..kind of like this thread.

when graig had his contest going I spent hours compiling images online. I like action shots with stadium landscapes and found about fifty photos I'd pay to have painted. I'm pretty sure cobb is a bain photo.its such a strange setup but very unique photo.

Default Final result- Greg Kreindler Vander Meer 1938 framing job- for those who care to look

Thought I would bump this thread where I was soliciting ideas on how to best display a painting...

The Johnny Vander Meer painting that Graig Kreindler recently painted for me is now officially on my wall.

After giving this much consideration, I opted to use an interesting framing choice to display Vandy. Max Weder (baseballart on net54) provided some great advice on considering using a shadow box frame. Thanks Max!

I chose reclaimed old red barnwood as the choice of the actual frame itself.
I felt that the red in the frame would really make the red pinstriping and lettering on his Cincinnati flannel uniform pop. Max's idea about using the shadow box allowed me to slightly lighten the image and not hide the canvas three dimensionality of an original oil painting.

I'm really happy with the end result. I hope you like it as well!

Very nice, scott! It adds to the rustic wooden feel of the dugout too. It makes it look like an old painting, in a good way. Nice choice!

Dude,
That looks fantastic. What size is that?
I am so going to have to steal that idea for mine.
I love the not hiding the edges, yet still highlighting the image. I agree with Jarrod, the old material really makes it appear antiquey(I just made up that word).
Did you find the materials and do it yourself?

Now, I have to decide on the right color for mine. I'm thinking blue of the het/pinstripes or green from the dugout. Any recommendations, Scott?



Best,
Mark

Mark,

Thanks!
Please feel free to borrow my idea. My painting is 20" x 28".
I would tend to agree with your idea about using blue or green as your frame color choice. Your wall color may be a possible factor in your choice as well. I would lean towards the blue, myself, FWIW.

Great presentation, Scott! Like Jarrod commented, it meshes well with the dugout, too.

Mark -- I'd go with the same shade of blue from the hat, personally.

Unfortunately, my hourly rate as an art consultant is somewhat lower than for my rate for Canadian tax advice

The framing does look great.

The good news I think is that these paintings will look incredible no matter what.

I agree... a frame made up of Popsicle Sticks would still work with these great paintings!

Scott:
Excellent choice... looks fantastic!

Mark:
I also like the blue frame idea for your Gehrig. It definitely calls for a darker shade, to match Lou's Cap and Pinstripes.

Great thread!

I agree that this thread has produced some great thoughts about the best way to display a painting. I've definitely learned quite a bit along the way and I hope that others picked up some ideas as well.
