7x10 Monet Pro Raw No 8 Canvas 1-1/2" Deep #MRE-0710

True Dynamic Root-2 Proportion - 7x10 Size

This 7x10 is one of our Dynamic Root-2 Rectangle Root-2 Rectangle series.

The Dynamic Root-2 rectangle is an interesting proportion based on organizing your spatial composition with endless symmetrical divisions. The premise in Jay Hambridge's 1926 book is that the Dynamic Symmetry of individual elements are informed by their relationship to the entire composition. This very special proportion is guided by the square roots of integers and has a storied and historical basis in art.

It involves the use of geometric shapes and patterns in the proportion of the square root of 2 to 1 to create balance and harmony in a composition. This can be achieved by dividing a composition into a grid of squares or rectangles, and then placing elements within the grid in a way that follows the principles of dynamic symmetry. Dynamic symmetry is often used to create a sense of order and structure in a composition, and can be particularly useful for creating compositions that are harmonious and pleasing to the eye.

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.

• 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 7x10 size frame

In art, we find solace from the complexities of life. ♦ Pierre-Auguste Renoir

A master of Impressionism, Pierre-Auguste Renoir lived in an era of rapid change and societal upheaval. The late 19th century was a tumultuous period marked by advancements in technology, shifts in cultural norms, and the underpinnings of modernity. Yet, in the midst of this swirling tide of change, he found a sanctuary in his art, much like we all do. Through his vibrant canvases, he celebrated the joys of life, from bustling Parisian cafes to serene landscapes and intimate moments shared between loved ones.

Similarly, many of us turn to our art as a refuge from the challenges and uncertainties that life throws our way. In the process of creating, we reconnect with ourselves, rediscover our inner peace, and find clarity amidst chaos. Renoir's perspective is both timeless and deeply personal. Through art, we not only escape life's burdens for a moment but also reinterpret and reimagine them, giving voice to our innermost feelings and experiences. His words are a testament to the transformative power of art, reminding us that, amidst life's complexities, we have a unique medium to find solace, expression, and meaning.
