Abstract: A picture frame is formed in a perimeter relationship relative to a central support plate. The picture frame includes a housing coextensively directed about the support plate, with the housing including a housing section associated with each side of the support plate. Each housing section includes an elongate cylindrical illumination bulb mounted therewithin. A transparent lens is positioned contiguous to and adjacent each edge of the central support plate coextensive with each illumination bulb to direct illumination onto the central support plate. A modification of the invention includes each elongate bulb formed with a plurality of semi-cylindrical coatings, including an opaque, translucent, and clear coating to provide a varying degree of illumination directed upon the central support plate.
