Abstract

A support bracket for an artwork frame comprising a first arm which is permanently secured to the frame by screws and has an eyelet to receive a picture wire, and a second arm which may project from the first arm to receive a securing bolt or other fastener through a hole at the distant end thereof. The second arm is thus used to secure the artwork during transport and/or for securing the artwork to the wall. The second arm may be pivoted as to be located behind the frame when the artwork is mounted, or removable.
