Abstract: A picture frame including front and rear members each having a main panel and a rearwardly-projecting peripheral wall, at least the front member main panel being transparent. The peripheral walls of the member fit together frictionally to hold the members together with a picture between the main panels. A support element projects rearwardly from the rear member main panel, the support element including a mounting panel and an interconnecting wall joining the mounting panel to the rear member main panel. The mounting panel is spaced from the rear member main panel a distance at least twice as great as the depth of the peripheral wall of the front member, and the area of the mounting panel is no more than 25% of the area of the rear member main panel.
