Gallery-stretched canvas · 6″ × 5″ · The Opposia · printed on demand
Canvas is stretched on a wood frame and arrives ready to hang — like a framed piece. Paper is an unframed sheet, shipped rolled in a tube for you to frame later. That is why a small canvas costs more than a larger paper print.
First canvas full price — every additional canvas in your order is 10% off · any artwork, any size, any view
Original proportion preserved: The Tower of Babel is 6:5. Each option is printed on the closest stocked canvas size — no stretching, no squashing, no unexpected cropping.
