Good questions before buying
With complex materials it helps to ask about build-up, adhesives, support panel and weight. A frame with depth protects reliefs. For work at this size, insist on a signature, a catalog entry for the title and a certificate.
Weight and hanging
Heavy mixed-media panels need secure hanging and a wall that can carry them. Get the weight and depth stated before choosing hooks or rails. For reliefs, a shadow-box frame helps keep out dust and touching.
