This serves two purposes. Firstly it prevents the frame from moving on the wall and creating the most annoying of all objects – a picture that isn’t straight! Secondly, the use of  felt pads produces an air gap between the frame and the wall, this helps the back of the frame to “breathe” and reduce the likelyhood of condensation, thus helping to prevent dampness and/or mildew forming.
