"I have been using Metropolitan Picture Framing to make my frames since my BFA show in 1992. I often make my prints fit within a standard size frame. As I sell framed prints I purchase new replacement frames in the same style. The craftsmanship and consistency of Metropolitan Frame's technicians is so great that I cannot tell one batch of frames from another. For more specialized projects I have depended on the guidance of their experienced sales people/designers and they have flawlessly manufactured frames according to my designs. Their thorough web site allows me to accurately price various frame styles and materials in order to stay within an "artist's budget".

Statement about the Artist/Artist's Work
Jeff Krueger is a commercial and fine art photographer living in St. Paul, Minnesota. The photos seen here are from his "In Italia" series made with an antique plastic-lens toy camera. He started making these simple, elegant pictures as a counterpoint to his more exacting documentary photographs of America's historic trees. This camera has no real exposure control or any other technical graces and encourages Krueger to think only about light, form and the spirit of the place. These pictures express the joy, serenity and beauty that Krueger beheld while visiting Italy.
