…. whatever you can tell me about caring for it.

Where do you recommend placing any documentation I wish to keep w/it- inside framing or attached to outside? I add a plastic archival sleeve with the info taped to the back Am I correct that it would be preferable to keep it in moderate temperatures . (Air conditioned house) & hanging where it does not get direct sunlight? YES, any light or heat it experiences will fade it more. It should hang on an indirectly lit wall.
