PHOTO PRINTS ON CANVAS

Canvas prints are the ultimate in photo reproduction. The canvas prints are stretched and gallery wrapped* around a wooden frame. Our prices are listed at the bottom of this page, but please call us for a price if different dimensions are required. Not all photos will produce acceptable results at the larger print sizes, please call to confirm. If you wish you can use one of your own images rather than ours. It is up to you!

*What is gallery wrapping?

Gallery wrapping is the process that the finished print goes through in order to mount and stretch it onto the internal frame. The canvas is gently stretched by one of the few patented StretchMaster machines in the UK on all four sides and wrapped around the edges. Each print is then hand finished with each corner being carefully folded and tucked in to ensure that there are no unsightly edges.

Then, the canvas is fixed to the back of the frame all the way round and finished off neatly to hide all of the fixings. This ensures that the final print is as good to look at from the back as it is from the front! Finally, we put stretching wedges into all four corners to ensure the canvas is a tight as possible on the frame.

What materials are used?

We use the finest artists canvas for the prints we produce, which is sourced from some of the biggest international art suppliers. Our Museum Quality Artists Stretcher Bars are made of the finest quality kiln dried fir wood, which has the advantage of being very light, yet extremely hard wearing and not susceptible to warping like standard pine or other softwoods are prone to do. Each bar features a rounded back edge which is designed to ensure that the canvas is always kept a full ½" (13mm) above the stretcher bar to ensure that there can be no ghost impressions on the canvas. These stretcher bars also incorporate ‘wedges’ which are placed in each corner and allow the canvas to be stretched extremely tightly over the frame. It also allows the canvas to be restretched over time, which can be of particular importance for the larger sizes we offer.

How do I hang the print?

We supply hanging kits with all of our prints so putting them up on the wall is as easy as banging in a picture hook. No more messing around with screws and drills! The unique design of the CWH Canvas Hanger included in the kit, incorporates a cut-out which allows the print to be hung on a standard 2 pin picture hook (also supplied). Using these hangers ensures that the finished print is 'pulled' flush to the wall and results in a very secure fixing with minimum fuss.
