I came here once upon a blue moon to get a former flatmate of mine a birthday present. He is a bit obsessed with Superman you see, and obsessed is even too quiet a word to describe his affection for the flying superhero. Edinburgh Arts & Picture Framers had a few that I'd spied on my way to Bristo Square, massive comic book stills in basic frames and at a reasonable price. Reasonable, that is, if you get everyone to chip in a tenner. \n\nThe only reason I'm not that impressed by this shop is that they sell really basic stuff. Nothing at all shocking or all that interesting either: I mean, they have your framed Van Gogh posters, and your framed Klimt alongside uninspiring portraits of Edinburgh. I'm not sure how they are as framers, though I'm sure they do a good job, but the artwork itself is just not that compelling (in the sense that it's all been seen and done before).
