Sample text
For this (painted) picture frame is at the same time a playful meta-referential meditation on the convention (and expectation) of framing pictures and the most important part of the trompe-l’œil painting itself, which was exhibited without a wooden frame (see Stoichita 1993/1998: 308). Another noteworthy function is the context-centred function. Framings frequently not only mark the inside/outside border between artefact and context (notably in pictorial framings and in the initial and terminal framings of temporal artefacts), but also help to interpret an artefact by creating a ‘bridge’ between its inside and its outside or context57.
