What is canvas fabric?

CANVAS, WHAT IS IT?

Canvas is a medium that can be made of 100% cotton of different weights — for example, at Giulia Schiaparelli, prints are made on 320-gram cotton — or a blend of polyester and cotton. Canvas fabric allows for optimal adhesion of color pigments for a vibrant result on a durable medium. Polyester and cotton canvas gives slightly more vivid colors during printing, while 100% cotton ensures a more resistant support.
