sorry i only mentioned how hard oils were to mount because i thought we were talking about mounting canvas work compared to works on paper.

this is true for hanging work but when showing paper works in an art gallery setting it has been my experience that the galleries prefer proper mounting and glass front framing on their paper works.
it alows them to set the price for the piece higher.
