Packaging was not appropriate, box too big and the picture was free floating inside the box and getting marked up. The picture itself was wrapped with a perforated cardboard that was rough in and of itself and was not protected the picture inside the box. The center of the large square box had been crushed in like something was set in the middle so the center tape was no longer in tact. The picture itself was nice, primarily due to the colors. I hate to say it though; the last several things I've purchased looked cheap in comparison to the price paid.
