The print poster is ideally suited for putting the art copy in a customized frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm round about the print in order to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.

Further, a printed canvas generates a cosy and pleasant atmosphere. The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight, which implies that it is quite simple to hang up the Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. Because of thata canvas print is suited for all types of walls.
