Artistic Ways of Hanging
and Grouping Pictures

The hanging and framing Of pictures
plays a very important role in the fur
nishlng of room, because they are
7 one of its greatest decorative factors II
pictures are hung in haphazard way
! without though of composition or unity,
the walls will become spotted surfaces
unrelated to the architectural unity OF
the room, and they would be far more
acceptable If left entirely bare.
If you have number OF pictures Of
various sizes and shapes. different in
quality and subject, select those that
have some artistic merit. that are inter-
pretative of some great thought or feel
ing. Arrange them with some thought
of their relation to each other. Long
wall spaces are difficult to handle, but
you can make them interesting by break
ing the floor spaces with your most sig
nificant piece of furniture. This will form
the nucleus above which to arrange your
pictures. Sometimes a triangular form Is
effective. or they may suggest the lines Of
an arch, but any means of securing
balance and symmetry may be resorted
to. If you are fortunate to possess
large fine picture, group others about
1t alike in feeling.
Try TO avoid hanging pictures or prints
too closely together, for one production
that Is exquisite In its delcacy may be
entirely overshadowed by an adjoining
one that is virile or aggressive. The
Japanese conception of showing but one
picture at a time is a sensible one, for
when the quality and even the frames of
pictures differ widely they are apt to
prove very disturbing. Colored pictures
look best when given wall space to them
selves. Frames of different color and
material and design IN close proximity
are also apt to clash.
Pictures should be harmonious part
of the wall itself, so they should be fast
ened close to the wall and not allowed
to tilt forward. Nails deface papering
as well as the plaster, so wire must be
resorted to as a means OF attaching them
to the wall, but 1t should be as incon-
spicuous and light In weight as possible.
The height of the room as well as the
position of the furniture must determine
the hanging of pictures. but one rule to
follow Is to place them so you will not
have to strain either up or down to see
them. Try the angle of picture by
standing at a distance to get the effect
Its position may have to be changed
several times before 1t is properly hung
Intimate photographs of friends and
relatives should be relegated to the prl-
vacy of bedrooms or boudoirs the living
room should only contain those which are
OF general. artistic interest.

"The following may be of use to the
