What is Gallery Wrap?
Gallery wraps are a streamlined, contemporary way to display art on canvas. The canvas is folded over the edge of a wooden stretcher frame and is attached to the back. The picture flows cleanly around, covering the sides. When the art is hung, it presents a continuous display of the image, uninterrupted by a white margin or side staples. Float frames can also be used with gallery wraps to add an extra element of sophistication.

Gallery Wrap The gallery wrap option stretches the image around the entire width of the stretcher bars, making a portion of the image viewable from the sides. For gallery wrap canvases, we use 1” thick wood support bars, the edges are painted either black or white or a colour compliment of the piece.
