Convert the photo in our editor in one click, choose from 16 sizes between 20×20 cm and 120×80 cm, and it is ready for dispatch within 24 hours, from £6.50.

Why Black and White Works on Canvas

How to Convert Your Photo

1. Upload the colour photo

There is no need to convert it first.

2. Apply the black and white effect

The preview updates on your chosen size and edge design.

3. Check the contrast

A good monochrome canvas has true blacks and clean whites. If the preview looks flat, choose a photo with stronger light and shadow, or adjust the contrast on your phone before uploading.

4. Choose the edge

The black edge design gives a monochrome canvas a solid, painting-like side; the white edge lightens it; mirrored keeps the whole photo on the front.

If you would rather keep colour, switch the effect off — every other option on this page is identical to our standard canvas prints.

Black and White Canvas Wall Art: Ideas That Work

A single large portrait

At 80×60 or 100×75 cm with the black edge, above a bed. One face, printed big, in monochrome, is the arrangement that needs nothing else on the wall.

A row of three squares

Three 40×40 cm canvases along a hallway — three children, three cities, three seasons. Convert every one, not a mix, or the row reads as an accident.

A black floating frame

The optional Premium frame in black matte gives a monochrome canvas the gallery look, and is made from 100% recycled ocean plastic.

Frequently Asked Questions about Black and White Canvas Prints

Can I turn a colour photo into a black and white canvas?

Yes. Upload the colour photo and apply the black and white effect in the editor before ordering; the preview shows the result on your chosen size and edge design. You can also upload a photo you have already converted.

Which photos look best in black and white on canvas?

Portraits, architecture, street scenes and any photo with strong light and shadow. Photos whose point is colour — sunsets, autumn trees — and flat overcast scenes tend to look grey. If the preview looks dull, choose a photo with more contrast.

What is a black and white canvas printed on?

285 g/m² 100% polyester canvas with a matte coating, hand-stretched over a real wood frame 2 cm deep (4 cm XXL optional). It is the same canvas as every MYPICTURE canvas print, tested for harmful substances.

How much does a black and white canvas print cost?

From £6.50 for 20×20 cm to £60 for 120×80 cm at the standard price, the same as a colour canvas — the conversion is free. Popular sizes: 40×30 cm £16, 60×40 cm £24, 80×60 cm £38. Delivery is £6 or free over £49.

Can I add a frame to a black and white canvas?

Yes. Choose the Premium floating frame in the configurator — black matte is the classic pairing, white or vintage silver the lighter alternatives — and the canvas arrives framed.

Getting a Monochrome Conversion Right

Contrast carries the picture

Without colour, tone is all that separates one part of the image from another. A photo with true blacks and clean whites prints with depth; a flat grey conversion looks muddy at any size.

Choose for shape, not for colour

Strong shapes, hard light and clear silhouettes survive the conversion. Subtle colour relationships do not — they collapse into similar greys.

It solves the decorating problem

A colour photo has to agree with the room. A monochrome canvas does not, which is why it can move rooms, survive a repaint and still look deliberate.

Mix one colour canvas in

On a gallery wall, a single colour canvas surrounded by monochrome ones reads as the focal point without any other arrangement being needed.
