fine-art
Robert Malherbe, ‘Portrait of Mary’, Oil painting, in a large black scoop frame. As well as canvas stretching, Acme Framing offer an range of float-frame designs (also know an L-frames) made specifically for framing works on canvas, designed to protect the artwork by leaving a gap between the painting and the edge of the frame, so that the frame appears to 'float' around the artwork. These can then be used as a base upon which to add other frames - a process called 'stacking' – in this example we've added a very traditional deep black 'scoop' frame.
