Mont Marte Premium Double Thick Canvas – 40.6 × 121.8 cm (16″ × 48″)

 

When a standard rectangle feels cramped but a full-blown mural is overkill, the Mont Marte Premium Double Thick Canvas – 16″ × 48″ delivers the perfect stretch. It’s tall enough for towering eucalyptus trunks, wide enough for sunrise horizons, and still light enough to manoeuvre on a single-artist easel. Triple-primed 380 gsm cotton duck is drum-tight on a 38 mm deep-edge pine frame with a centre brace, so thick knife work or resin pours stay flat and true straight out of the wrap.

TL;DR – A 16 × 48-inch, 380 gsm deep-edge canvas that’s triple-primed, braced and ready to hang frameless the moment the plastic comes off.
