5x7 Classic Value Linen Canvas 3/4" Deep #CL-0507

True 7:5 Photography Proportion - 5x7 Size

And 5x7, of course, is one of the most popular sizes ever in both photography and art..ever!

Another widely used proportion in photography is the 7:5 aspect ratio, but is relatively uncommon in art, save for the 5x7 size. It is commonly accepted as a pleasing proportion. Some artists choose this proportion to add visual interest by breaking away from more traditional shaped canvas sizes. There are only a handful of standard canvas sizes in this ratio, but there are a whole collection of (what we call) Lost Sizes in this aspect ratio, which are often unknown sizes that add intrigue to the final composition.

Consider one other size in the same 7:5 proportion:

No Finger Joints!

Solid Wood is far superior to finger jointed wood, which is many small pieces glued together, each with varying grain densities that absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, expanding and contracting non-uniformly as environmental conditions change, and causing the wood to bow and the finger joints to eventually fail.

A single homogeneous kiln-dried solid wood Stretcher Bar outperforms and outlasts a finger jointed Bar whose sole purpose is to save the manufacturer cost, not contribute to the archival value of artwork intended to last a millennium. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

Time stays long enough for those who use it. ♦ Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci, a true polymath of the Renaissance era, stood as a beacon of insatiable curiosity and unmatched brilliance. His vast contributions to art, science, and engineering are a testament to his relentless pursuit of knowledge and understanding. It was not just the breadth, but the depth of his work that distinguished him. Da Vinci's meticulous studies, from the fluid dynamics of water to the intricacies of the human anatomy, often took years, if not decades. Yet, he rarely seemed rushed, as if he was privy to a secret about time that eluded others.

This adage on time serves as a poignant reminder to artists. We often feel the weight of fleeting moments, especially in an era characterized by immediacy. Yet, when we immerse ourselves wholeheartedly in our craft, time seems to extend its favor, allowing us the luxury of exploration and expression. It's not about racing against the clock but immersing oneself in the process, savoring each moment of creation. Just as da Vinci viewed the world with wonder, we too can transform fleeting seconds into lasting impacts, proving that time is indeed generous to those who respect and utilize its gifts.

Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner

While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.

With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
