Additionally, no glass is used to frame a canvas print. Being glass-free has several advantages:
- the necessity for glare control is eliminated.
- the piece is lighter in weight than an identically-sized, framed paper print, and is therefore able to be hung in places where a heavy frame might be too much for the supporting structures.
- no glass means no irritating streaks on glass that are difficult to remove.
- shipping is safer, as there is no glass to break if the box gets dropped or mishandled. While severe mishandling could still break the frame, broken glass creates the possibility of damaging the print underneath, or more importantly, the person opening the box. No glass means no glass shards.
