+1 for &quot;environment matters&quot;. Ansel Adams has a little section in his book <i>The Print</i> where talks about how the environment matters for prints and how one of his best shows was at<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;British_Museum" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;British_Museum</a><p>where the color of walls was a bit darker than most galleries. I&#x27;ve frequently observed that prints that look good in one location don&#x27;t look good in another. For prints it is worse than screens because it is not just the color of the surroundings but also the illuminant that varies. I&#x27;ve been thinking about how to adapt a print to an environment but haven&#x27;t quite succeeded at it yet.
