Matte Canvas
Ideal for framing, the poly/cotton blend archival-grade canvas will satisfy even the most discriminating taste. This canvas has a medium gloss finish, and after printing via the Giclee process, your historical maps are guaranteed not to fade, yellow, or crack for more than 100 years. The result is truly magnificent and ideal for those seeking the look and feel of an actual painting.
