5x7 Classic Value Smooth Canvas 3/4" Deep #CP-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.

The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Often hailed as the bridge between 19th-century Impressionism and 20th-century Cubism, Paul Cézanne stood at the crossroads of a rapidly evolving art world. His unique approach to form and color was groundbreaking, but it wasn't always met with the acclaim we associate with his name today. This sense of misalignment with the prevailing sentiments of his time is palpable in his words. The struggle to find a place in a world that might not yet be ready to appreciate one's vision is a sentiment that many artists can intimately relate to.

We, too, grapple with moments of doubt, feeling out of sync with prevailing trends or misunderstood by our peers. Yet, this very isolation can be the catalyst for our most profound work. In withdrawing, we create a space where our authentic voice can flourish, unencumbered by external pressures. In the silence of solitude, we find the clarity to see our path and the strength to follow it, undeterred by the noise of the world around us.

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.
