A frame can make a big difference! I finally got this painting framed and it came out beautiful. We now have it hanging in our dinning room. Just a couple of tips: Make sure to choose framing that will accentuate/complement your artwork, not distract from it. Darker frames tend to look nicer on lighter colored walls, and viceversa. If you are going to use matting and glass, choose subtle colors that already exist within the picture; by doing this the viewer's eye will be drawn into the art itself, rather than focusing on the matting. Framing, whether using matting or not, should always make the artwork the focal point.
