Did you worry about this with silver-based prints on fiber?  They will also 
fade quickly if they are displayed in direct sunlight.  So will 
watercolors.  So will oil painting if they are left in the sun and 
heat.  Reputable galleries know this so they do not display artwork in 
direct sunlight.

I repeat - My prints have not faded at all when displayed correctly.
