Raw Mandalay™ Belgian Linen 11.6 oz Unprimed

Very heavy weight linen and very tightly woven. Take control of your art by preparing your own ground on Belgian Linen canvas. Use bare expanses of canvas as part of the painting or simply create the ground exactly ask you like.

• Very Heavy Weight, Tight Weave, Coarse Texture
• Raw fabric blocks 92% of the light, which indicates how tight is the weave
• Warp and Weft: 31x33 yarns per square inch
• Linen has natural oils that prevent disintegration over time.

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.

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

With more than 60 years of American engineering, Masterpiece® designs and builds its own proprietary stretching equipment that enables us to produce the finest and most tightly-stretched canvas on the market.

• 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

Since 1965, our passion for perfection has driven us at Masterpiece® to construct professional quality canvases that artists around the nation desire. All too often, other brands are more focused on saving cost and delivering less than adequate quality. However, we find that our customers not only desire fine quality, but they also tell us that their art is better for having painted on the exquisite canvases that we produce.

Everything that is not art is ugly. ♦ Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin, a post-Impressionist artist known for his richly colored works and contributions to Symbolism, often ventured beyond the familiar in search of the unadulterated and the primitive. His escape from Paris to Tahiti wasn't just a physical journey but a quest for aesthetic purity. When he declares that everything outside the realm of art is ugly, it can be seen as a reflection of his own quest to escape the mundane, the routine, and the industrialized civilization. To Gauguin, the pursuit of art was the pursuit of beauty in its most genuine form.

This idea taps into the notion that our lives are driven by a search for meaning, depth, and beauty. As we labor over our canvases, each brushstroke becomes a testament to this pursuit. Gauguin challenges us, artists, to elevate our perspective, to discern art in all that we see, and to cherish the beautiful intricacies hidden within everyday life. It's not just a statement about art, but a profound reflection on life's priorities, reminding us to continuously seek and appreciate the aesthetic in every moment.
