Only Masterpiece® offers a unique series of Lost Sizes that you won't find anywhere else. Take, for example, 7x7, a little-known size that's part of the classic 1:1 Square proportion. We love to inspire artists with unusual sizes to take their art to the next level to help make their art stand-out from the rest.
True 1:1 Square Proportion - 7x7 Size
This 7x7 size an intriguing and atypical small size odd square.
The square is perhaps the most intriguing proportion, as it is root of all of the other proportions. It is commonly used in both photography and art. Squares are typically used as the center canvas of a triptych or as a single canvas hung at a 45° angle. The square proportion is long used with medium format professional cameras, and most photographs we see on websites and social media are based on square images. Since all sides of the canvas are the same length, your eye is drawn evenly across the surface of the painting creating a sense of harmony, balance, and a generally a pleasing visual experience. The square format is also a good choice for artists who focus on geometric shapes or patterns in their work, as the regularity of the square shape can help reinforce these elements. Some artists enjoy the challenge of working within the confines of a square format, as it forces them to think creatively resulting in intriguing compositions.

Vincent™ Pro 7/8" Deep Bar • 5/16" Canvas Clearance
5/16" 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 7/8" deep stretched canvas
- 1.5" 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.

♦ Eugène Delacroix
Eugé ne Delacroix, a titan of the Romantic art movement, was not just a painter but a philosopher in his approach to his work. His powerful and emotional artistry is characterized by its dramatic imagery, but beneath the vibrant colors and dynamic scenes lay an individual who understood the importance of completion, both in art and in life.
Every artist knows the weight of an unfinished piece, how it lingers in the mind, nudging for attention. A canvas left untouched or a sculpture incomplete carries with it not just the promise of what it could be, but the shadow of what was left undone. For us, this is not just about completing a task; it's about the commitment we've made to ourselves, our vision, and our craft. As we dive into our art, it's imperative to remember that by bringing our projects to fruition, we not only honor our skills but also liberate ourselves from the chains of incompletion, allowing us to move forward, unhindered, towards new horizons.
We hope to inspire your art with this wonderful quote and our interpretation along with our own one-of-a-kind portrait of Eugène Delacroix..got to love it!
