Thank you very much.

I just purchased a picture light. It is one of those fancy lights
that is installed over a piece of artwork, and it then shows off the
art at night.

There are two 25 watt bulbs.

Can this fade my picture after a period of time?



Usually yes. Of course it depends on whether the picture is an oil (acrylic,
etc.), water color, charcoal, a black-and-white photo, a color photo,
mosaics, and so on. Also the type of bulb matters.

Check with the restoration section of your local art museum.
