To display this beautiful artwork, you can hang it on a wall in your living room, bedroom, or office. Make sure to choose a spot where it can catch the light and be easily seen. When handling the painting, always hold it by the edges to avoid touching the canvas surface. This can prevent smudging or damaging the paint. Keep the painting away from direct sunlight, as long - term exposure can fade the colors. Also, avoid areas with high humidity or extreme temperatures, as these conditions can harm the canvas and the paint. If there's a bit of dust on the painting, you can use a soft, dry brush to gently remove it. Don't use any cleaning solutions unless it's recommended by a professional art conservator. With proper care, this wonderful piece of art will bring the beauty of Santorini to your space for years to come.
