Picture Lights FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions: Picture Lights

What size of light should I get to illuminate my picture?

In general, the length of the picture light shade should be about half of the width of the picture.

What kind of light should I get to illuminate my picture?

You’ll want to make this decision based on the power source you will be using.

Plug in picture lights can be plugged directly into a standard power outlet but will have an exposed cord.
Hardwire picture lights may be more difficult to install because they are hardwired directly into an electrical box. You will need to have an electrical box in place to install this type of picture light.
Battery operated picture lights do not have cords to worry about and do not need to be wired to anything. They will be easily installed, but require batteries to work.

How high above my art should I hang a picture light?

This will vary depending on the particular light that you buy. It should be high enough above the picture that it does not obstruct the picture from the viewer and the bulb should be positioned so the viewer cannot see it directly.

Can a picture light damage my art?

Ultraviolet and infrared lights may damage art, so avoid those types of lights. For best results, use a true daylight bulb with a color temperature between 3,500K and 4,100K.
