Show an art print the way it will actually look: on a wall poster mockup.
Good pick for illustrators, event promoters or anyone putting together a portfolio. Tip: outdoor ads are read in a second or two. Big type and one image will look far better in this scene than a busy layout.
Showing a campaign in context helps clients see the scale; a design that feels loud on a laptop can look quiet on the street.
