Gallery-Wrapped Canvas – The canvas is stretched over a solid wood frame, with the map design wrapping around the sides. It arrives ready to hang without an outer frame.
Framed Canvas – A gallery-wrapped canvas finished with a modern solid wood float frame. A small space between the canvas and frame creates the appearance that the map is floating inside. It arrives ready to hang.
Rolled Canvas Poster – An unmounted canvas map shipped rolled in a tube. It is trimmed to its finished size and ready for traditional framing but does not include extra canvas for gallery stretching. Push pins are included. Does not arrive ready to hang.

- The appropriate hanging hardware

What frame options are available?
Choose from six sleek, modern solid wood float-frame finishes: black, brown, natural, white, silver, and gold. Float frames leave a small space between the canvas and frame, creating the appearance that your gallery-wrapped map is floating inside.
