Hello again,

A colleague would like to ask this august body for advice and ideas:

"I had a lady bring in a painting of her father done on silk in 1951 in Japan, and 
is about 16" x 16". She was wanting to display it in some manner. Right now 
she has it folded in a Ziploc bag. If she wants it framed, would encapsulating 
it in Mylar before framing be the right thing to do? Without any support, it will 
eventually sag and slide down the frame. Stitching it to a muslin backing, but 
as white and delicate as it is, not sure that would be the best move either. 
Any ideas?"

Thanks in advance for all your help!
