I have an oil painting waiting to fill a blank wall but there is a radiator beneath where the painting would go.
Is it safe for that painting to go there?Can you hang an oil painting above a radiator?
yesss.
my dad has done it maany times.Can you hang an oil painting above a radiator?
depends... does the color of the radiator compliment the painting? :-)
Absolutely NOT!
Oil paintings should be placed in a stable environment. The fluctuating temperature, particularly the heat and relative humidity would put the health of the painting at risk. You could induce cracking, warping of the stretcher frame, rippling of the canvas and other problems.
