Crane, the manufacturers of the new Museo Maustro Canvas have announced that they have evolved a new technology with a water resistant coating, and the matt version is very well priced and is not a warm white like most canvas products to date produced by other manufacturers keen to capitalise on the Portrait market.
Cranes matt has a brightness of 97 making it ideal for all general landcape photography without fear of skewing blues and pushing yellows and reds. An industry first from the company with such a huge R & D department.
Neil Wallace of Heidelberg Fine Art Wholesalers, local distributors for the Crane product range said, "The canvas surface imparts a sense of craftsmanship to your work, implying hand painted art. Imagine the possibilities for expression and new markets!"
He continued "The canvas uses superior-quality coatings optimised for pigmented inks to provide professional printing performance. Because it is authentic canvas, you can stretch and frame your digitally-printed image just like traditional artwork. And like the distinctive fine art papers from Crane & Co., cotton is a key component in the rich canvas base. You can trust the design and quality to portray and preserve your artistic intentions for generations."
Crane have also introduced Museo Portfolio Rag which Wallace says combines an extra smooth cotton base with Crane’s advanced coating to bring you a paper that feels luxurious and provides world-class image quality.
Museo Portfolio Rag is perfect for museum exhibition and portfolio prints or when exceptional tonal ranges are required.
