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.

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.

Impressionism; it is the birth of Light in painting. ♦ Robert Delaunay

In the realm of art, Robert Delaunay emerged as a beacon of innovation and change. While he began his career deeply influenced by Impressionism, his journey evolved, leading him to co-found the Orphism art movement. Delaunay believed in the power of color, and his emphasis on light echoed the sentiments of the Impressionists before him. The statement captures his admiration for a movement that transformed art by making light its central character.

Impressionism was more than a style; it was a revolution. It broke away from the stringent rules of academic painting and offered a fresh perspective. Instead of focusing solely on form or line, light became the driving force, allowing us to see the world in a new and vibrant hue. Every brush stroke, every dab of paint was a testament to the ever-changing dance of light and shadow. The Impressionists' legacy teaches us that by observing and capturing the fleeting moments of light, we can achieve a vivid and dynamic representation of our world.
