What is a canvas backdrop?
1 Answer
A canvas backdrop is a textured backdrop made from canvas. They are preferred because of the way the light interacts with the material. The canvas is less reflective than a paper backdrop and has a lovely matte feel to it. Shop a selection of backdrops from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
