ABSTRACT:
A device for exhibiting flat articles consists of a profiled frame, which surrounds a picture on all sides round its outside. A flange is formed on an inwardly directed web of the profiled frame which is in register with a further web running parallel to the rear side of the picture frame, the flange facing towards the viewer and having a sheet of glass fixed to its end, the glass closing the profiled frame on the side facing the viewer. The picture is pressed against the side of the web facing away from the viewer by elastic pads, which bear against a rear wall connected to the rear side of the profiled frame. The edge and the marginal region of the sheet of glass are received by a rectangular recess of the picture frame. Since the inwardly directed web is in register with the outwardly directed further web, the face side of the picture is located in a plane behind the rear side of the picture frame. The device according to the invention can protect a picture from damage and also against environmental effects given an air-tight implementation of the frame receiving the picture, while the overall impression of the picture and the picture frame stays virtually unchanged and reworking of the picture frame to receive the profiled frame is dispensed with.
