We have recently been commissioned to supply and install 10 lights for paintings at Ironmongers Hall, Barbican, London. Our new Contemporary Picture (L.E.D.) light was finished to the same color as the panelling to try and hide the light – note there is no overspill of light onto the top of the frame, unlike conventional bulbs that burn filaments our L.E.D.'s emit electrons to evenly cover the canvas with illumination.

Details from the above painting - See your paintings in the correct light.

Another large Ironmongers Hall painting, lit by our LED light. The light can just be seen above the top of the frame with specially made arms to hang the light from a cornice above.

Large landscape of London

Very red painting

A very large painting at Ironmongers Hall, London, without any power at the back.

Hogarth made custom arms to hang the light and run the power thru the arms from a cornice above.

The painting was very dark and our light with 4 LEDs enhanced it greatly.

Note the full cover of Illumination with no hot spots of light on the Frame or Canvas. One of the most exquisite frames I have ever seen.

It was a special privilege to be invited to illuminate the paintings at Ironmongers Hall.
Another lighting solution from Hogarth.
