Art Print Appreciation

mike asked:


I bought a poster of Van Gogh - Starry Night 2 from Art.com for $2.00. Id like to now bring it to a picture shop and have it framed. It would be sooo much cheaper than buying the picture and the quality is good. Do people ever do this?
The picture itself would cost at least 400 probably if I bought it at a store.

sorthax asked:


This is for an apartment I share with my girlfriend, we are planning on buying some art to put on the walls and were wondering if framing posters is:
1) too tacky.
2) will look like it belongs in a dorm room as opposed to an apartment.
