Print behind glass or not?

2002-07-04 by Bernhard.Schuerlein@t-online.de

Hello, 
I started to hang b&w prints (MIS VM ink) on my walls and found the glass to be a problem: Antireflex glass is not transparent enough, reflex glass has way too much reflexions from various angles, the very best is without glass at all. 

What does this mean for the longevity of a) the print and b) of the passepartout. It is a normal (dry) living room, no direct sun. 

Would a kind of "anti UV" spray be useful?  Do you recommend to put the prints behind glass in any way?

Thanks for answering, 

Bernhard
