I'm displaying a title and caption along with an artist's painting. Are the quote marks correct like this?

Title: “The Tree”

Caption: “A black tree in the wild”

If you are displaying this in a gallery, ask the gallery's preference. If that doesn't lead anywhere, ask the artist. If the artist is unavailable, I'd go with drm's suggestion. – MrHen Jul 16 '11 at 21:14

The caption might be improved, too. What is the painting an image of? Just a black tree? Any surroundings? – Daniel δ Jul 16 '11 at 23:03

You do not need quotes in the title or the caption:

Title: The Tree

Caption: A black tree in the wild
