There are many different ways to
frame papyrus.
The most conventional way is to show the whole Papyrus
including the edges.
There are two ways of achieving this, the first is to sandwich the Papyrus
between two pieces of glass on the back and front.
The picture on the right and below are framed using
this method, in both
cases
there is approximately 50mm between the Papyrus and
the frame showing thewall colour through the glass.
This works well if you have a plain colour
wall.
This method is used by most museums in Egypt
showing off the whole Papyrus. |

Another method of framing Papyrus is
to mount the Papyrus
onto a backing mount.
The Papyrus below is mounted onto a blue suede mount board,
this method
still
allows the natural edges of the Papyrus to be seen.
By mounting the Papyrus
ontoa backing mount you can
choose almost any colour to compliment the picture,
this
a better choice if your wall colour is not suitable. |
