Canvas Framing Styles

We offer three methods of framing for your canvas prints.

•  Photo wrapped over frame sides
•  Plain canvas on frame sides
•  Mirror photo on frame sides

All of our canvas prints are hand framed using deep gallery box (38mm depth) pinewood frames which have been environmentally ethically produced from European suppliers, using quality wood from managed woodland. The canvas is carefully stretched and stapled. The high structural integrity of our wooden bars means that cross bars are not required, even on our largest sizes. Wedges are then placed into the corners of the inside frame. Should the natural cotton of the canvas stretch over time, these can be adjusted to re-tension the canvas artwork. Your canvas prints will arrive ready to hang, complete with hook attachment on the centre back of the frame.

	Photo wrapped over frame sides: Our most popular method of canvas framing. Your photo is printed on the entire canvas. The printed canvas is then placed on the front of the frame and wrapped over the edges. This gives the effect of the image continuing over the sides of the frame giving a continuous blend.
	Plain canvas on frame sides: Sometimes the main elements of a composition are very close to the edge of the photo. In this event, it is preferable not to lose any of the image over the sides of the frame. To achieve this result, the photo is printed only on the front area of the canvas. The print is then placed over the frame with the entire photo on the front and the sides left as plain white canvas.
	Mirror photo on frame sides: An attractive method of framing when the main elements of a composition are very close to the edge of a photo. Your jpeg is printed on the front of the canvas. The photo is then mirrored over the edges. This creates a continuous blend of colour over the sides of the frame whilst retaining the entire composition of your image on the front of the framed print.
