Established in 1985, Back to the Picture is the realization of an entrepreneur's dream. A family business, Back To the Picture is owned and operated by the Gomez family, with help from longtime staff and craftsmen. Their love of art and people is demonstrated by the business's primary occupation of custom framing of client artwork, and by its secondary arm operating an art gallery featuring International, National, and Bay Area artists. Back To the Picture works with interior designers and commercial clients, the general public, and professional artists in its framing business. The gallery hosts guest curators as well as group shows produced by Back To the Picture staff. Come see us at any of our three San Francisco locations! Custom Framing is our specialty! We have frames available at all price points of the spectrum, from fine quality custom frames to inexpensive readymade frames. Frisco Frames, our house line of on-demand frames, are gallery quality contemporary frames at readymade frame prices. Additionally, we sell decorator art and mirrors, feature local and national, and international artists in our gallery.
