For a painting to be mounted on a wall, it must be framed. Then the frame is attached to the wall with a special bracket called a picture hanger. The hanger is fastened to the wall by the use of a nail that is driven in at a 45 degree angle. A painting on canvas also has a frame that the canvas is stretched over, these paintings can be hung without a frame if desired, use framing wire attached to the canvas frame.
