What are framed art prints and stretched canvas prints?

They’re not like regular posters are they? Because I am looking for Beauty and the Beast posters and the only result showing up have really expensive ones that aren’t even posters. What are they?

I guess it is self explanatory- framed art print is a “print” made from a piece of artwork that has been professionally “framed” to look nice and command a bigger price.

a stretched canvas print would be closer to an original oil painting , most oil paintings are done on stretched canvas which is attached to an underlying wooden frame, the print is then either framed from there (the canvas and the frame altogether) or it is trimmed and matted and then framed, unless you are a bachelor- then you just hang the stretched canvas on the wall as is- by the underlying wood frame the canvas is stretched around.

so your beauty and the beast posters must have been “upgraded” to one of these for collectors, which would explain the expense.

A print is where you put on a rubber rectangle with a pencil. the art things you use to scoop out things (small, medium, and large sizes) is what you use to scoop out everything except the pencil lines. You then roll paint on the rubber, (don’t get it in the scooped out parts. Then you turn and press it on paper. ::)) that’s just how
