Abstract
A picture frame including a first elongated frame part, a second elongated frame part, a third elongated frame part and a fourth elongated frame part. Each elongated frame part includes at a first end a connection element configured to releasably engage a receiving member arranged at a second end of another elongated frame part. Each of the connection elements extends in a direction transversal to a longitudinal extension of the elongated frame parts, and the connection element includes a guiding protrusion configured to guide the connection element into the receiving member.
