Canvas Star Map Prints
A star map that arrives ready for the wall. No frame to buy, no trip to the framing shop, no waiting. Just unbox it and hang it up. Our canvas star maps are printed using a 12-colour giclée fine art process on artist-grade canvas, hand-finished and stretched over a solid wooden frame. The result is a substantial, tactile piece of wall art with a depth and texture that flat prints can't match.
Run your hand across the surface and you can feel the weave of the canvas beneath the ink. The colours sit differently on canvas than on paper: richer, warmer, with a soft matt finish that absorbs light instead of reflecting it. It's the difference between looking at a print and looking at a painting.
12-colour giclée process.
Giclée printing uses twelve individual ink channels to produce a colour range and tonal depth far beyond standard printing. Fine gradients, subtle star clusters, and the soft glow of constellations are rendered with a precision that standard CMYK printing can't achieve.
Artist-grade canvas.
Our canvas star maps use the same heavy-weight canvas stock chosen by fine art printmakers. Stretched over a wooden frame and finished with clean gallery edges, each canvas has the presence and feel of a piece you'd find in a gallery, not a mass-produced poster.
Ready to hang.
Every canvas arrives stretched, finished, and fitted with hanging hardware. Open the box, find a spot on the wall, and hang it. That's it. No extra costs, no waiting for a framer, no decisions about mouldings and mounts. The art is the focus.
The same sky, a different character.
The astronomical data is identical to our museum-grade and foil prints: every star, constellation, and planet positioned using ESA Hipparcos satellite data. But the canvas changes the feel. It softens the image, adds warmth, and gives the print a physical presence that paper can't replicate.
A Star Map You Can Hang Today
The night sky from any date: printed on artist-grade canvas using a 12-colour giclée fine art process. Stretched over a wooden frame and ready to hang straight out of the box. No framing needed. Astronomically accurate, gallery-quality, and personalised to your moment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do canvas star maps need a frame?
No. Every canvas star map arrives stretched over a wooden frame with clean gallery edges. It's ready to hang straight out of the box: no frame, no additional cost, no waiting.
What is giclée printing?
Giclée (pronounced "zhee-clay") is a fine art printing process that uses twelve individual ink channels instead of the standard four. The result is a dramatically wider colour range, smoother gradients, and richer tonal depth: the same process used by fine art galleries and museums.
How does canvas compare to a paper print?
Canvas has a different texture and feel — the weave of the fabric gives the print a warmth and tactile quality that paper doesn't have. Canvas also arrives ready to hang, while paper prints need a frame. Both use the same astronomical data and are equally accurate.
What sizes are available for canvas star maps?
Canvas star maps are available in multiple sizes. Use our design tool to see available sizes and preview your canvas before ordering.
Are canvas star maps good gifts?
They're one of our most popular gift formats, especially for people who want to give something that's ready to display immediately. No framing needed means the recipient can hang it the same day they receive it.
