Adjustable art display
First Claim
1. An adjustable artwork display for suspending a picture on a wall surface, comprising:
- a rigid, planar base having at least a front side, a back side, and at least one mounting aperture, the front side of the base including a rigid extension sleeve projecting from said base and including a first locking means;
at least one rigid extension rod adapted to be slidably received within said extension sleeve and said extension rod fixed relative to said extension sleeve with said first locking means;
a rigid, planar picture plate having at least a front side and a rear side, the rear side including an extension rod attachment means having a second locking means, the front side of the picture plate including at least one hook means adapted to affix the artwork to the wall.a pivot member adapted to be received by said extension sleeve and secured by said first locking means, said pivot member adapted to connect with said extension rod; and
at least one mechanical fastener fixing the base to the wall surface through the mounting aperture, with at least one extension rod secured in said extension sleeve of the picture plate, such that the artwork may be suspended from the hook means of said picture plate and the orientation of the artwork relative to the wall may be adjusted.

Abstract
An adjustable artwork display for suspending a displayed item, such as a picture, away from a wall surface is disclosed. The mounting bracket comprises a rigid, planar base that includes a rigid extension sleeve projecting away therefrom. At least one rigid extension rod is slidably and rotationally receivable within the extension sleeve and fixed therein. A front side of a picture plate includes at least one hook means adapted to support the picture. A rear side of the picture plate includes an extension rod attachment means that may slidably and rotationally receive the at least one extension rod therein. In use, the base is fixed to the wall surface with a mechanical fastener. With at least one extension rod fixed in the extension sleeve and also fixed to the picture plate, the picture may be suspended from the hook means of the picture plate away from the wall surface. Each extension rod may be rotated and slid within the extension sleeve and the extension rod attachment means of the picture plate to a desired position and fixed therein. As such, the artwork is substantially rigidly fixed to the wall surface, while projecting away from the wall.
