It's All About the Canvas Print
A canvas print of your favorite photo lets you bring art gallery flair into your own home. The canvas print resembles a piece of fine art adding a touch of class and elegance to any wall.
Uses & Gift Ideas for Canvas Prints:
- An alternative to a framed photo.
- Ideal to showcase a special memory such as a wedding photo, or a family portrait.
- Canvas prints make exclusive gifts for retirements, graduations, weddings, anniversaries and farewells.
- Faster and cheaper than commissioning an artist.
What you should look out for when buying a canvas print:
- Canvas prints are stretched over wooden gallery frames in one of two formats: with or without a wrap-around edge, often referred to as "Box Canvas" or "Gallery Wrap". This is when the image folds around the edges of the frame. Alternatively, the photographic image can be presented squarely on the front of the canvas and will have plain white edges for a more contemporary look. Most suppliers offer the wrap around edge.
- If your canvas has a wrap around edge ensure that the important part of your images is away from the egde – usually 2.5" - 3".
- Check the quality of the canvas and the printing method being used.
- Your canvas print should come mounted on a wooden gallery frame and be ready to hang.
- Enquire about the size and resolution your original photo should have to ensure you get best results.
