‘Drawings’ section added to The Frame Blog The Frame Blog now has a new section (accessible, like the Archives, Contributors, etc., from the header, above), which contains drawings and designs for frames, organized by nationality within century. These are taken mainly from the drawings departments of large museums and similar institutions; occasionally from commercial galleries and auction houses; and each drawing is linked back to its source. As well as designs for altarpieces and moveable frames, the subjects include wall elevations containing frames, some designs for engravings of frames or book frontispieces and illustrations where these seem significant, and drawings of details of ornaments or profiles. http://theframeblog.com/2025/09/21/drawings-section-added-to-the-frame-blog/
