A poster is ideally suited for framing your fine art print in a special frame. Please keep in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin 2-6cm round about the painting, which facilitates the framing with your custom frame.
• The canvas print: A canvas print, not to be confused with a canvas painting, is a digital copy printed from an industrial printer. The advantage of canvas prints is that they are relatively low in weight. This means, it is quite simple to hang the Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. A canvas print is suited for any kind of wall in your home.
