Lighting for Your Paintings
11 March 2006
If you’ve spent a good chunk of change on a handsome painting for above the fireplace, you want people to see it, right? During the day, it’s probably not a problem, but artwork can blend in and become unnoticeable by the dimmer lighting of night. This is why people like to get special picture lights like this slender polished brass lamp. It’s unobtrusive enough not to block the view, but bright enough to draw focus to your artwork. The picture lamp is 16″ wide, extends 12″ from the wall, and runs on two 10 watt bulbs. It’s available for $140 from Lamps Plus:
