Abstract: A frame (2) for framing a picture/an artwork (4) having a periphery (8) is disclosed. The frame (2) comprises a contact surface (10) provided at the inside (12) of the frame, which frame (2) comprises an opening (14), through which the picture/artwork (4) is mountable. At least one flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) extends along at least a portion of the contact surface (10). The at least one flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) is provided in such a manner that the flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) is configured to securely maintain the picture/artwork (4) within the frame (2) by means of a compression force (F1) and/or a friction force (F2) between the at least one flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) and the periphery (8). The flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) is compressible. The flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) is attached to the frame (2) in such a manner that the flexible member (6, 6?, 6?, 6??) is restricted from being moved along the width (axis X) of the contact face (10).
