The best definition I’ve found online came from the Shannon Studios website. They define Gallery Wrapped Canvas as:
“A canvas where the print covers the edges (no border). A gallery wrapped canvas is stretched and is ready to hang. Gallery wrapped canvases are beautiful and a great value. It gives you the option of framing or not framing.”
