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
Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars
Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.
We only use Solid Wood to build our Stretcher Bars because a solid piece of wood will last indefinitely. When we speak of archival value, it's not just the paint you use and the quality of your canvas and ground, even the wood choices manufacturers add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.
The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. 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.

We write not in order to be understood, but in order to understand.
♦ Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche, a philosopher whose influence on modern thought remains profound, was no stranger to the labyrinthine intricacies of human existence. His writings, often probing and introspective, were a testament to his relentless quest for understanding. Throughout his life, Nietzsche grappled with profound concepts of morality, existence, and the human psyche, leading him to pen some of the most profound philosophical treatises of his time.
The act of creation mirrors Nietzsche's approach to writing. When we engage with our medium, whether it's paint, clay, or any other form, we are often seeking clarity and comprehension. By pouring our emotions, doubts, and aspirations onto the canvas, we gain insights into our own souls. Each artwork becomes a reflection of our introspections, a testament to our personal growth and evolving perspectives. In this journey of self-discovery, we realize that the process of creating is just as significant, if not more, than the final product itself.
We believe in the power of words to inspire, and the magic of art to connect. Enjoy this meaningful quote with contextual background, and admire our unique rendition of Friedrich Nietzsche to complement your imagination. Get busy on your next composition!
