Question

What type of frame works best for canvas prints?

Answer

Floater frames are the most popular choice for stretched canvases. They hold the canvas from behind and leave a small gap between the artwork and the frame, which creates a clean, modern gallery look.

Frame type	Best when
Floater frame	You want a modern gallery look with a slim gap around the canvas
Traditional frame	You want to cover unfinished edges or prefer a classic style

Match the frame color and finish to your room's decor rather than the artwork alone.
Floater frames suit gallery-wrapped canvases where the edges are part of the image.
