Spanish term or phrase: a sangre
Hi. Would appreciate your help.
I have come across this term and don't exactly know the technical term for this. It is regarding the framing/assembly of photographs.

Context: "Marco de aluminio negro, a sangre, sin cristal."

thanks in advance :)

no border
Explanation:
This is the term used of a print which goes right to the edge of the mounting without the usual border. It gives it a more modern and dynamic look (in my opinion).

VARIANT: ...Bleeding Edges...

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 12 mins (2009-10-21 18:02:12 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

Hi Robert,
Here's some information that should help you; my VARIANT suggestion is based on the same:
design destined for print requires setting up to certain specifications to ensure that the work is printed correctly by industrial lithographic or digital print firms. This often starts with the initial document upon which the design is to be created by adding the correct bleed area and crop marks. Let’s take a look at what crops and bleed actually are, why they are required and how to set them up in your favourite Adobe package.


Baffling Bleed
Let’s start with the term bleed, this is the area of artwork that is extended beyond the actual dimensions of the document. It is used to avoid strips of white paper showing on the edges of your print should the batch be misaligned when cut to size.

Any objects in your artwork that touch the edges of the document require bleed, for instance a background colour or image should spread to cover the entire bleed area as should any objects that creep in from the side of the page.

Sounds like you may know more about it than I-with my limited experience- do, Robert: from what I gather, it refers to the process of providing a background color to insure that no "white areas" appear beyond the dimensions of the document's edges.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks eski :) so it has nothing to do with indentation? which is a term somewhere in Kudoz terms?

Asker: :) Wow, thanks for the explanation I am sending you a virtual diakiri. I see it is the similar philosophy behind editing movies, where edges are usually "cut out"

Asker: will do :)

neutral  Jennifer Levey: In the printing industry this is the correct term and explanation, but it doesn't fit in asker's context about photo framing because it refers here to the frame, not the picture.
