You don't have to display it

Dear Prudence,

I dearly love cats. At this point in my life, I’ve had to say goodbye to six cats, all whom lived a long and happy life. Last Christmas, my brother commissioned a very large and expensive painting of all my cats, past and present. It was a lovely and sentimental gift, but it makes me sad every time I look at it. He comes over often and I don’t want to hurt his feelings. I also don’t want to burst into tears every time I see it. What do I do?

    That is incredibly sweet of her brother!  But I can also understand why it would be an upsetting painting to look at all the time.  

    If the LW has an area they can display it but won't see often, I think that would be a good spot.  If not, then keep it somewhere that is convenient for her to look at when she wants to.  If she feels she needs to explain, she could emphasize again how much she loves it and was touched by the painting.  But it is sometimes too much of an emotional impact, so she keeps it where she can look at it privately.
