A continuing theme, obviously. When you've framed prints, how are you lighting them ? Are they just stuck up on the wall with whatever light happens to be there ?

The short answer is yes. Mostly because lighting dedicated to framed artwork would be impractical in my house. If I owned a Monet or Renoir, that would be different.

It's a good idea to avoid direct sunlight of course. Most galleries and museums use some type of overhead lighting near the wall pointed down at an angle to minimize reflections. You could probably get pretty good results with track lighting.
