I feel odd knowing my boyfriend has his ex's drawing on his wall.

I know, this must sound terribly stupid and childish. But I wonder if this is normal. My boyfriend has a drawing (I'd say 25 inch x 20 inch) his ex girlfriend gave him like 5 or 6 years ago. It's the drawing of a wolf, since he likes them, and has her signature in a corner. it hangs right above his bed. There was a season in which I went to his house and hung out in his room a lot and it made me feel uncomfortable looking at that.

Now, his ex has caused a lot of troubles between us. She has intruded in the relationship, she doesn't want to meet me, though she likes seeing him with any excuse. They were together for nearly 3 years and broke up almost three years and a half ago. I feel that if we are ever to live together. Bringing that piece of memorabilia would be unacceptable!

I guess my question is, would you keep a gift like that on your wall from an ex, knowing that your present girlfriend visits you and that you've even had relationship issues concerning her?
