5x7 Vincent Pro Mono Lake Canvas 7/8 Inch Deep #VML-0507

True 7:5 Photography Proportion - 5x7 Size

And 5x7, of course, is one of the most popular sizes ever in both photography and art..ever!

Another widely used proportion in photography is the 7:5 aspect ratio, but is relatively uncommon in art, save for the 5x7 size. It is commonly accepted as a pleasing proportion. Some artists choose this proportion to add visual interest by breaking away from more traditional shaped canvas sizes. There are only a handful of standard canvas sizes in this ratio, but there are a whole collection of (what we call) Lost Sizes in this aspect ratio, which are often unknown sizes that add intrigue to the final composition.

Solid Wood is Archival - Finger Jointed Wood is Not

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 make are part of the archival process.

The principal reason manufactures use finger jointed wood is reduce cost, not increase archival value. Wood constantly grows and shrinks when the environment becomes hotter, or colder, or more humid, or more dry. Because finger jointed wood is made-up of multiple and varied pieces of wood, with varying grain patterns and densities, they each absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, which works on the glue joints that hold them together, causing the wood to bow and the joints to eventually fail, and certainly not consistent with increasing the archival value of your artwork frame support.

As a manufacturer, we do our part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality made product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

The world of reality has its limits; the world of imagination is boundless. ♦ Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a philosopher, writer, and composer of the 18th century, profoundly influenced the Enlightenment in France and across Europe. His thoughts were radical, often challenging the status quo and emphasizing the innate goodness of man and nature. Rousseau was a believer in the power of human emotion and intuition, often placing them above reason and intellect.

His words capture a sentiment that many of us in the artistic realm hold dear: while reality, with its tangible constraints, might restrict us, our imagination offers an expansive universe with infinite possibilities. It's within this vast landscape of the mind that we find our most profound inspirations and our most daring innovations. Rousseau's reflection invites us to venture beyond the familiar, urging us to explore and expand the horizons of what we believe is possible in our art and in our lives.
