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.
7x9 Monet Pro Strainer Frame
- Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
- Strainer Bars are used when the short side is under 10" inches
- Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable
- No cross braces required when the frame length is under 20", but this frame provides very robust and solid support for this 7x9 size frame
Sustainable Forests for Future Generations
Sustainable forestry practices go beyond just planting and harvesting trees. They also involve careful planning, monitoring, and management to ensure the long-term health and productivity of the forest. By using lumber from sustainably managed forests, we can support these important practices and help to ensure that our planet's forests remain healthy and productive for generations to come.
MuseumWrap™ Stretching Technique

- Drum-tight stretch!
- Up to 50% tighter than other methods
- Balanced tension across the surface
- Uncut folded corners make it possible to remove and re-stretch canvas on the same size frame
- Usually the corner folds are on the long sides

You are not alive unless you know you are living.
♦ Amadeo Modigliani
A figure of bohemian Paris and an artist whose life was as dramatic as his creations, Amadeo Modigliani understood the profundity of truly experiencing life. Amidst the whirlwind of the early 20th century, he sought depth and meaning in every moment, rejecting mere existence in favor of passionate living.
This statement is both an invitation and a challenge. We are tasked with translating the vibrancy of life onto our canvases, pulling from our deepest emotions and observations. Yet, to do so requires us to be fiercely present in our own lives, to feel deeply, and to be acutely aware of our surroundings. It's a call to immerse ourselves in the world, to engage with it wholeheartedly, and then to share our unique perspectives with others. It's through this cycle of experience and expression that we not only come to know we are living but also enrich the lives of those around us.
Creativity is the heart of what we both do. So we've curated this empowering quote and some background. And, in our own act of creation, we provide this unique portrayal we made of Amadeo Modigliani.
