There are no animal products that make-up the sizing and the primer for this fine canvas. Historically, traditional canvas grounds have included egg tempura, pigments with cow urine, and of course, rabbit skin glue. In today's rapidly advancing world, there are many more choices available for artists who prefer non-animal based products that perform far better than their animal-based predecessors.

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.

Impressionism; it is the birth of Light in painting. ♦ Robert Delaunay

In the realm of art, Robert Delaunay emerged as a beacon of innovation and change. While he began his career deeply influenced by Impressionism, his journey evolved, leading him to co-found the Orphism art movement. Delaunay believed in the power of color, and his emphasis on light echoed the sentiments of the Impressionists before him. The statement captures his admiration for a movement that transformed art by making light its central character.

Impressionism was more than a style; it was a revolution. It broke away from the stringent rules of academic painting and offered a fresh perspective. Instead of focusing solely on form or line, light became the driving force, allowing us to see the world in a new and vibrant hue. Every brush stroke, every dab of paint was a testament to the ever-changing dance of light and shadow. The Impressionists' legacy teaches us that by observing and capturing the fleeting moments of light, we can achieve a vivid and dynamic representation of our world.
