| Glossary Of Picture Framing Terms
[1] |
Riser (1) The depth of a stretcher bar - the distance between the back and the front of the bar that translates to how far the canvas will protrude from the wall, once mounted. 1 1/2" and 3/4" are the most common riser depths.
(2) A picture frame riser is a wall-affixed hanger which extends out from the wall, pushing the frame forward. Used to achieve varying depths on a display wall.
(3) May also refer to the panel inserted behind an image in a frame, which moves the image forward to create a shadow and space between the backing and the image. This process is called Float Mounting. |
