Claessens Oil Primed Linen Canvas (Rolls) |
| |
A family firm with respect for tradition. Up to the turn of the last century, many professional artists prepared their own canvases. As more and more amateurs took up the brush, the demand for canvas prepared by traditional methods grew. In 1906, close to the River Leie and in the middle of the Flax District, Victor Claessens founded a company to produce top-quality artist’s canvas. To that end, he refined the tried and tested methods that had been passed down from generation to generation. Almost a century later, Claessens NV is still operating in the original buildings in Waregem. The descendants of Victor Claessens have made a conscious choice to keep a small-scale approach to production and to honor the traditional methods for treating artist’s canvas.
There are three different varieties of Claessens art canvas available here at Cheap Joe’s. Find out which one would be best or your painting style and your canvas art supply needs.
