Where it works

Audubon’s northern hare in its white winter coat crouches on a grassy bank, pale grey and soft gold against a winter sky, set on cream with a typeset label. Hung at 16×24 in dark wood, it suits a cottage bedroom or a hallway, beside his summer Northern Hare.

Framing. A slim black or dark wood frame right to the plate edge; the plate's own margin frames the subject.
