The Construction, in Full
Floater and wrapped, side by side.
Both mounts are the same canvas over the same 25 mm solid pine stretcher. Only the edge treatment and the framing differ. A floater holds the canvas from behind, so an open gap runs right round the edge and the canvas front sits flush with the face of the frame.
