I have painted with oils as large as 6 foot by 10 foot, and that was a breeze to hang as opposed to the large works on paper.
Large works on paper can be hung in two ways without a frame.. With clips hung from tracks, or with accetate tabs which are fixed to the back of the work, and the work is then pinned through the tabs.
sorry i only mentioned how hard oils were to mount because i thought we were talking about mounting canvas work compared to works on paper.
