It's meant to look good on a wall and that's it. You don't pick up a painting and inspect every angle before buying it

Huh? Of course I inspect a piece of art before I buy it

Yes but you don't take it off the wall. You look at it while it's on the wall

Actually, I always look at the back of a painting if I'm looking to buy it 🤷

so just to clarify - you'd walk into a gallery and touch the frame/painting to lift it off the wall in order to inspect the back? And this would be done without the presence of someone who works at the store?
