A picture mount is an essential part of displaying your work.  The picture mount provides a sturdy surface that will protect the artwork.  If you are an artist or a photographer and you sell your artwork at art festivals, then you definitely want to sell your work mounted on a picture mount.  The picture mount will protect the art from damage while it is on display in racks or bins.  Picture mounts are also essential if you are framing your art, because it serves as a solid, protective backing board.
