10x14 Monet Pro Versailles Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #ML-1014

True 7:5 Photography Proportion - 10x14 Size

For an uncommon size, artists do tend to appreciate and use this intriguing 10x14 size. It's also considered to be a Dynamic Root-2 Rectangle size.

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.

Explore other sizes in this same 7:5 aspect ratio:

5x7 • 15x21 • 20x28 • 25x35 • 30x42 • 35x49 • 40x56 • 45x63 • 50x70

Monet™ Pro 1.5" Deep Bar • 1/2" Canvas Clearance

1/2" Canvas Clearance is the space between the Bar and the canvas. Generally speaking, more clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Our design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to the maximize strength of the Stretcher Bar.

• Produces a 1.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
• 1-5/8" wide Stretcher Bar
• Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest

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.

• Precision machined heavy duty keyable tongue-and-groove Stretcher Bars
• No cross braces required when the frame length is under 20", but this frame provides robust support for this 10x14 size
• To increase canvas tension, remove any staples in the corners, then tap-in the included corner keys further into their slots, then re-staple the canvas

I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting. ♦ Paul Cézanne

Whose contributions to Post-Impressionism lay the groundwork for both Cubism and modern art as a whole, Paul Cézanne was not just a painter but a profound philosopher of his craft. His works, characterized by their repetitive, exploratory brushstrokes and pioneering approach to form and color, often moved beyond mere representation. Delving into this statement offers a rich tapestry of understanding about the complex relationship between an artist and the broader realm of art.

For many, the act of creating is not solely about the final product or the accolades it might garner. It's about the conversation, the dialogue between the artist and the universe of art. Cézanne's sentiment is one that might ring true for a multitude of artists. We may often feel more connected to the world of art than to the specific medium we engage with. It's an acknowledgment that art, in all its myriad forms, is a living, evolving entity, and we, as artists, are privileged to engage with it, learn from it, and contribute to its evolution.

By referring to himself as a friend of art, Cézanne underscores the deep respect, admiration, and humility he feels towards this vast universe. It's a poignant reminder for us that, in our path, it's not just about producing work but about nurturing a relationship with the broader world of artistic expression. It beckons us to approach our craft with an open heart, eager to both share and receive, and to remember that we are but a small part of an intricate, timeless tapestry of creativity.
