DESCRIPTION
14x18 Masterpiece Monet Pro 1-1/2" Deep Artist Canvas. Pure medium weight Belgian Linen finished to a primed weight of 13 oz. per square yard. It is triple sized and single primed with archival quality alkyd oil primer, making the ground impervious to paints leaching through and harming the fabric. Suitable for oil or alkyd paints only. It is very absorbent and is a fabulous painting surface. The surface color has an off-white grayish tint. Belgian linen is very strong and has natural oils within it's fibers which keep it flexible and help prevent disintegration over time. The surface has more of a charactertic linen surface with a slight hint of the linen weave showing through.
With respect to frame construction, a celebrated feature of this product is what is called ''Canvas Relief'', which is the space between the canvas and the Stretcher Bar. There is 1/2'' of relief making it virtually impossible press on the canvas and touch the stretcher bar underneath. The frame is made from solid pine or fir wood harvested from the sustainable forests of the Pacific Northwest. Finger joints are never used in Masterpiece's wood frames. They are known to fail under pressure and over time, the glue joints break down, and are generally unsuitable for canvas frames that intended to last for centuries under continual tension. Precision machined tongue-and-groove corners allow you to increase the canvas tension. No brace required for this size. Corner keys are pre-installed.
Stretched using our proprietary MuseumWrap stretching method, which means that the canvas is stretched drum-tight, up to 50% tighter than other methods, and with balanced tension across the surface of the canvas. The corners are neatly folded, uncut, and perfectly intact, thereby making it possible for the canvas to be removed and restretched on the same size frame. The edges are suitable for painting for display with or without a frame. A free inspirational art quote refrigerator magnet is included. There are over 120 to choose from! Made in North America!
