Hi. I would appreciate your help.

What is the technical word in photography for this term in this context? Mounting, framing, assembly, none of the above.

Montaje: Marco de aluminio negro, a sangre, sin cristal.

Thanks in advance :)

I'd say Neilmac's answer is the most technically correct, wheras my suggestion is more generic; or commonly used.

Asker: thanks :) But isn't montage a combination of photographs into one work? This is referring to how it is "framed". I apologise in advance for my ignorance.

neutral  xxxmediamatrix: Doesn't tally with the context: "Marco de aluminio negro, a sangre, sin cristal" which is concerned with display, not creation.

Notes to answerer
Asker: yes I was going to say that "my term" is part of a fact sheet with the following points: Tipo de obra, Medidas, Montaje (and montajes is refering how it is assembled/mounted/framed) but don't know which of the three terms is the more artistic version.
