Large Wall Art Materials & Finishes

Designed for expansive spaces and panoramic presentation, the Large Wall Art Collection is produced by a professional fine art laboratory specializing in oversized photographic displays. Available presentations vary by artwork and size and may include acrylic, aluminum, and framed fine art paper. Each piece is professionally finished and delivered ready to display.

Acrylic Large Wall Art

Best for: luminous color, fine detail, enhanced visual depth, and a polished contemporary presentation.

A professional photographic print is face-mounted beneath polished acrylic, creating rich color, clarity, and depth. This sleek presentation is particularly well suited to dramatic landscapes and expansive panoramas.

  • Presentation: photographic print face-mounted beneath polished acrylic
  • Appearance: luminous color, crisp detail, and enhanced visual depth
  • Mounting: concealed rear-mount system with a French cleat or other laboratory-specified hanger appropriate to the size
  • Display: a clean, floating appearance
  • Care: follow the supplied care instructions; use a clean, soft microfiber cloth and avoid ammonia-based glass cleaners

Standard 3:1 sizes: 48 × 16, 60 × 20, and 72 × 24 inches.

Standard 5:2 sizes: 48 × 19.2, 60 × 24, and 72 × 28.8 inches.

Custom sizing: smaller formats and other dimensions may be available by quotation, depending on the photograph and production requirements.

Acrylic artwork versus acrylic glazing: this presentation has the photograph bonded beneath acrylic. The framed paper option below uses a separate protective acrylic sheet over the paper print.

Aluminum Large Wall Art

Best for: contemporary interiors, vibrant color, durability, and a clean frameless appearance.

The photograph is dye-sublimated onto a specially coated ChromaLuxe aluminum panel. Our standard Mid-Gloss surface delivers rich color and crisp detail with moderate sheen. It complements panoramic photographs with a clean, modern presentation.

  • Material: dye-sublimated ChromaLuxe aluminum
  • Standard surface: Mid-Gloss; reflections vary with room lighting and viewing angle
  • Appearance: vibrant color, strong contrast, and crisp photographic detail
  • Rear support: ¾-inch silver inset frame
  • Hanging: French cleat preferred; an attached wire may be used where appropriate for the selected size
  • Display: the inset frame holds the artwork away from the wall, creating a subtle floating effect
  • Care: follow the supplied care instructions; dust with a soft microfiber cloth and use a lightly dampened cloth or non-ammonia cleaner when appropriate

Standard 3:1 sizes: 48 × 16, 60 × 20, and 72 × 24 inches.

Standard 5:2 sizes: 48 × 19.2, 60 × 24, and 72 × 28.8 inches.

Custom sizing: smaller formats and other dimensions may be available by quotation, depending on the photograph and production requirements.

Aluminum offers an excellent balance of visual impact, durability, and manageable weight for oversized panoramic artwork.

Framed Fine Art Paper

Best for: a classic fine art presentation, subtle paper texture, and traditional or transitional interiors.

The photograph is produced as a Fine Art Giclée print using archival pigment inks on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308. This museum-quality, 100% cotton paper has a matte surface and subtle texture. The print is mounted to rigid foam board and professionally finished in a Black Block wood frame.

  • Standard paper: Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308; 308 gsm, 100% cotton, acid- and lignin-free
  • Printing: Fine Art Giclée with archival pigment inks
  • Surface: matte with subtle texture
  • Mounting: print mounted to ¼-inch foam board
  • Standard frame: Black Block wood frame
  • Standard matting: no mat, for a clean presentation that emphasizes the photograph
  • Optional matting: a White mat, including a 1-inch border where available, can be included by quotation
  • Alternative frames: Black Scoop, selected Black Americana profiles, and other frame styles may be available by quotation; availability depends on the size and configuration
  • Glazing: protective acrylic glazing; its appearance and reflections depend on lighting
  • Hanging: attached wire hanger for the standard configuration; hardware is confirmed for the selected size and frame
  • Care: clean only the exterior glazing and frame according to the supplied instructions; do not allow moisture to contact the paper print

Standard 3:1 image sizes: 48 × 16 and 60 × 20 inches.

Standard 5:2 image sizes: 48 × 19.2 and 60 × 24 inches.

Smaller custom image sizes: available by quotation. For a 5:2 photograph, examples include 30 × 12, 36 × 14.4, and 40 × 16 inches. Dimensions for other photographs follow their panoramic proportions.

Image size versus finished size: the listed dimensions refer to the photograph itself. The frame and any mat are added outside those dimensions. A 60-inch-wide image therefore results in a finished framed piece wider than 60 inches. Exact outside dimensions are confirmed for your selected frame and mat before you approve the order.

Matting example: a 40 × 16-inch image with a 1-inch mat on all four sides measures approximately 42 × 18 inches before the frame is added. This is a planning estimate; the laboratory confirms the final outside dimensions.

Pricing: published framed-paper prices apply to the standard Black Block frame with no mat. Alternative frames, matting, and custom sizes are quoted separately.

Sizes, Production & Delivery

Each Large Wall Art piece is made to order by a professional U.S. fine art laboratory. Available materials and sizes depend on the photograph’s proportions and the selected presentation.

  • Panoramic proportions: 3:1 and 5:2, depending on the photograph
  • Standard Acrylic and Aluminum widths: 48, 60, and 72 inches
  • Standard Framed Fine Art Paper image widths: 48 and 60 inches; the frame and optional mat increase the finished outside dimensions
  • Smaller and custom formats: request a size suited to your office, room, or available wall space; availability and pricing are confirmed individually
  • Choosing a size: a 60-inch image can provide substantial impact in larger spaces, while a smaller panorama may better suit an office or compact room. For framed pieces, allow space for the complete outside dimensions
  • Production: individually produced and professionally finished; estimated production and delivery timing is confirmed with your quote
  • Hanging: the appropriate hanging system is supplied for the selected material and configuration
  • Packaging: oversized pieces are professionally protected and may require custom crating or freight delivery

Your final quote: confirms the artwork, image dimensions, finished outside dimensions, selected material, frame and mat where applicable, shipping, any required crating, applicable tax, and total delivered price. You approve these details before payment and production.
