The Benefits of Canvas Prints Over Traditional Framing
When it comes to displaying your favourite images, we know the options can feel overwhelming. At Just Picture Framing Online, we’ve been working with photography, fine art, and custom framing for years, and we’ve noticed more people are choosing canvas prints over traditional framing. Canvas prints are not only beautiful to look at, they’re also practical, timeless, and offer a level of quality that truly brings your image to life. If you’re weighing up whether to go with a framed print or a canvas piece, this blog will outline the benefits of canvas prints over framing.
Achieve a more modern look and finish
First things first: canvas prints have a clean, modern look that works in any space. Unlike traditional frames, which come with glass, matting, and sometimes bulky edges, canvas prints give your image a gallery-look without overwhelming your wall.
At Just Picture Framing, we print your photo directly onto high-quality cotton canvas, which is then stretched over a sturdy timber frame. The result is sleek and minimal, perfect for modern homes, office spaces, studios, or anyone looking for a more contemporary finish.
Sturdy designs that are made to last
Not all canvas prints are created the same, it's important to avoid cheap imitations with thin materials, poor printing and fading colours.
At Just Picture Framing Online, our canvas prints are made using premium cotton canvas for a true fine-art feel. The surface is durable and has a beautiful, natural texture that adds depth to your image. It doesn’t feel synthetic like some budget versions you might come across.
We use a 12-colour pigment ink system to make sure your image comes out rich, vibrant, and full of life. This isn’t your average print job. We’re using the latest Canon wide-format printer technology to ensure every detail is crisp and every tone is accurate. Best of all, our inks are fade-resistant for up to 75 years for indoor use. That means your canvas won’t just look good for a year or two.
No extra framing needed!
One of the biggest benefits of canvas prints over traditional framing is simplicity. When you order one of our canvas prints, it comes already stretched on a wooden frame—3.5cm x 3.5cm thick for that perfect solid structure. We don’t cut corners. Your print arrives with string on the back, ready to hang straight out of the box.
With our canvas prints there’s no need to fiddle with mounting, matting, or glass and there are no extra costs for framing services. You won’t be left wondering whether your print will fit in a standard frame or have to take it somewhere else to finish the job. We take care of the whole process for you.
Versatile for every space
Because of their clean finish and soft, matte texture, canvas prints work beautifully in just about any room, where you want the focus to be on the image itself. And with our custom size options, you can find the perfect dimensions to suit your space, whether it’s a small 20x30cm piece or a statement 100x150cm print.
