"Ready-to-Hang" canvas giclées - After coating your canvas giclées with UV-blocking varnish, we stretch and attach them to wooden frames for a gallery-wrap appearance. These mounted reproductions are well-built and terrific-looking.

What options are available for the side, top, and bottom edges of the giclées?

• The last inch or two can be mirrored, so that no portion of the image is lost by being wrapped around the stretchers. (This is the most common solution elected by our customers.)
• Sometimes the artist will opt for a matching or contrasting solid color to be applied to the edges.
• In certain cases, it is desirable to wrap a portion of the periphery of the image around the frame, in effect cropping the image. (This was the technique used in the example of the Renoir giclée above.

In order to help the artist differentiate his/her original painting from even a limited edition of reproductions, we chose to not utilize the usual gallery-wrap procedure of wrapping the canvas around to the back of the stretcher bars and stapling the canvas to the back surface. Rather, we employ a new technology, involving physical anchoring of the canvas, backed up with two types of archival adhesive. The resulting mount is tight, secure, but unlikely to be confused with the more conventional technique utilized to attach artists' canvas to stretcher bars. Although this non-traditional method is new, it was endorsed and marketed by Hahnemühle--one of the oldest and highest-regarded manufacturers in the printing industry. Finally, we attach screw eyes and hanging wire, so the resulting unit is truly "ready-to-hang".

The prices listed below are for complete, mounted reproductions (including giclée, varnish, and frame). A 15% discount applies to orders of four or more "Ready-To-Hang" canvas giclées ordered at one time. Shipping costs may be additional.

In order to present a complete, accurate pricing guide, you will find pricing for HALF FRAMES on either 1¼" stretchers or on 1¾" stretchers.  For example, to calculate the price of a 20x24" canvas giclée on 1¼" stretchers, please add the price for a 20" 1¼" half frame ($50.03) and a 24" 1¼" half frame ($63.37) for a total cost of $113.40.
