This 36-Light LED Wall Picture Light was conceived to the true luminaries of the art world: crafted in collaboration with artisans, these fine art lighting fixtures make art more artistic, arranging displays in a warm swath of illumination that only these art lights bring. In fact, these cutting-edge LEDs shed a new light on illumination technology. Shining at a Color Rendering Index of 90, this Picture Light's 36 low voltage LED nodes paint a new layer of expression upon the canvas, suffusing both reds and blues into fuller richness. The secret to the lamp's museum-grade color rendering lies within its natural lighting: light is composed at a color temperature of 2700 Kelvin, a white-yellow glow that recalls the early morning sun. But where the sun fades and discolors paintings with harmful ultraviolet radiation, this Picture Light's LEDs are completely safe on the artwork, preserving paint with clean illumination. This 36-inch shade is built to be as versatile as possible in order to ensure optimized lighting for every display: the shade itself sits upon a ball joint, allowing for it to adjust to a wide arc of illumination, and the arms that attach the light to the wall can extend between 5 to 8 inches, accommodating frames of varying thicknesses. And although incandescent lights offer a similar accentuation of art, these LEDs prove themselves as a superior luminary through advanced energy efficiency: this Picture Light requires only 24 watts of electricity to function, an 80% reduction of power in comparison to incandescent bulbs. And where incandescents have a maximum lifespan of only 1,200 hours, these LEDs last for over 50,000 hours, able to provide an average of 20 years of reliable lighting. Dimmable with optional Dimmer only. Not Compatible with Dimmable Wall Switches.
