Worried about prints going mouldy or warping. Any ideas to stop that?

I have a canvas of a chimp reading a newspaper 👍🏻

@DillyD0007854

You need laminated art works,

you could have artistic style tiles and shower curtains ...

We have quite a few pictures, but nothing of any value at all. Quite a few prints or postcards.

Like nudes? I can just imagine a 'boudoir' style affair

Yes, an icon. The wood kept for couple of years intact. I moved it since in the kitchen, it still looks all right

Yes, you can have art in the bathroom.
My parents have prints behind special glass -they’ve been okay for 20+ years.
We have a beach scene -it’s reproduced on glass and so can withstand steam etc. (Sorry, there’s the reflection of lights in the photo.)

I have an acrylic on canvas that’s been in a very steamy bathroom for a decade - not a bother on it.

We don't though I want to. The people we bought from had a framed picture up that must have been there for a really long time and they left it behind.

It didn't look remotely damaged. I would only put up a cheap picture in a bathroom and then take my chances!

I’ve had framed prints up in mine for years. No mould.
