- Canvas posters or posters are distinguished by several specific characteristics which differentiate them from other types of posters or paper prints:
- Canvas support (canvas): Unlike classic paper posters, canvas prints are made on cotton or polyester canvas. This medium is more textured, which gives a more artistic appearance, reminiscent of oil or acrylic paintings. Durability: Canvas is generally more resistant than paper, it does not tear easily and better withstands humidity conditions or temperature variations. It also resists fading better over time. Frame: Canvas posters are often stretched over a wooden frame (called "stretched canvas"), giving them a ready-to-hang appearance without the need for additional framing. This adds an aesthetic dimension and an effect of depth to the work. Visual aspect: The texture of the canvas brings a certain depth to the colors and a more “artistic” rendering. The details appear softer and more natural compared to paper prints, giving an effect close to hand-painted works. Matte effect: Unlike paper posters which can have a glossy or satin finish, canvas posters generally have a matte finish, which reduces reflections and allows better appreciation of details from different angles. Customization: It is more common to personalize canvas prints with hand touch-ups, as the medium lends itself better to painting and drawing techniques. This makes each piece unique. These elements make canvas posters ideal for long-term decorative creations, especially for interiors that seek a look that is both sophisticated and artistic.
