Winsor & Newton Linen Canvas, 30" x 40"

• Strong and durable linen remains the preferred surface for many artists
• Made from the fibbers of the flax plant harvested in western Europe
• The warp and weft threads weigh the same meaning they are less prone to expansion or contraction due to moisture
• Retains its natural oils which helps to preserve the fibbers flexibility and stops the canvas from becoming brittle
• Has a more 'natural' weaved finish than cotton
