True 3:1 Panorama Proportion - 5x15 Size

This 5x15 Panorama size is popular for cinema and for art.

The 3:1 Panorama a proportion is preferred by many artists who require a super wide compositional format. Of course, this proportion is popularized by photographers and cinematographers, for ultra landscape and wide angled imagery that creates a sense of scope and grandeur in a scene, like cityscapes, ocean and mountain scenes, and scenes with expansive horizons. It is described as a polyomino proportion on the order of 3 or triple-square proportion. There are several common Panorama sizes in this 3:1 aspect ratio that you will recognize, and some are intriguing custom sizes, as well.

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.

This primer contains premium-grade Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) white pigment, renowned for its exceptional performance in acrylic priming. Its standout feature is its enduring whiteness, coupled with remarkable flexibility that persists over time.

This quality ensures that artworks retain their integrity and will stand the test of time.

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.

Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do. ♦ Edgar Degas

Edgar Degas, a titan of the Impressionist movement, is renowned for his striking ballet scenes, vivid horse races, and intimate portraits. His work, characterized by a meticulous attention to detail and a keen observational eye, showcases his deep understanding of his craft. This sentiment is reflected in his observation about the dual nature of artistry. To the uninitiated, painting might seem like a straightforward endeavor, but those deeply entrenched in its intricacies know the challenges it presents.

When we embark on our artistic paths, the world is a canvas of possibilities, unburdened by conventions or techniques. But as our knowledge grows, so does our critical eye, making us more aware of the nuances and the standards we wish to achieve. It is this duality that every artist confronts. On the one hand, there's a yearning to return to that unfiltered innocence where creation flowed without hindrance. On the other, there's a profound appreciation for the depth and dimension that experience brings to our work. By embracing both perspectives, we artists can harness the spontaneity of the novice and the expertise of the seasoned, making our creations richer and more authentic in the process.
