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.

♦ James Whistler
James Whistler's astute observations about art criticism reflect his experiences in the often polarized world of the art establishment. Whistler, no stranger to criticism and controversy, was frequently at the center of debates over the value and interpretation of art. This quote underscores his fundamental belief that art appreciation is subjectiveHe believed that labeling something as universally not good is unreasonably presumptuous. Instead, admitting personal bias or individual taste is both honest and uncontroversial.
For artists, especially those of us navigating the challenges of reception and interpretation, Whistler's advice is quite grounding. He reminds us that our work will be viewed through the lens of individual perspectives. While critique is inevitable, understanding the inherent subjectivity of art appreciation can be a source of solace and strength.
