ABSTRACT:
An adjustable frame for stretching sheet materials, such as canvas paintings, is disclosed. The frame comprises a plurality of individual frame segment members; and means for interconnecting and/or adjusting, the separation of adjacent frames. The sheet material or canvas is stretched by adjusting or separating the frame segments from adjacent segments to thus expand the overall dimension of the frame. The individual frame and corner segment members comprise light weight, substantially hollow structures which are easily manufactured, yet very sturdy in construction. The framing device of the invention is particularly adapted to be manufactured from light weight plastic materials which offer distinct advantage over known wooden frames. The framing device of the invention is particularly suitable for mounting very expensive oil paintings or masterpieces and overcomes the difficulties of known frames.
