Large Frame for Reproduction of Faith47 Mural

This eye catching oil on canvas, brought to us to frame, is a reproduction of a mural painted by street artist, Faith47.

The original picture, 'Harvest', is painted on the side of a multi-story building in Cape Town, and lights up at night each time enough money is raised for one new light to be installed on a pathway in the informal settlement of Monwabisi Park, Khayelitsha.

Before a canvas can be framed, it needs to be stretched around wooden stretcher bars.

Sometimes, people like to hang a stretched canvas on their wall without a frame. However, if you would like to have it framed, you can choose from two options: a conventional moulding or a 'float' moulding.

A conventional moulding has a rebate meaning that two or three millimetres of the outer edges of your canvas will be covered up.

If you would prefer to have your canvas sit inside a 'float frame', also known as a tray frame or a canvas box frame, the entire canvas will be visible.

You can also choose to have your canvas positioned right up to the inner edges of the float frame or, to add definition, placed a centimetre or so inside. This creates what's called a 'shadow gap', and is what our customer chose to do here with their canvas.

We've been stretching and framing oils on canvas since 2006 so click here if you'd like advice or a no obligation quote from our professional team of Framers.
