Hanging Kits Come Standard With Ready to Hang Prints

A direct answer on what arrives in the box, what does not, and why the hardware question matters more than the artist's name on the label.

Auvrique Editorial · Fine Art Editions

The short answer

Yes. Framed prints and canvas editions arrive as ready-to-hang art prints, with the hanging hardware included in the box. A framed poster ships with the fixings needed for a standard wall, and a canvas comes with its hanging fixtures attached or enclosed. Nothing extra needs to be bought before the piece goes up.

What arrives in the box

The short answer is yes. A framed print ships with the hanging hardware included, so the piece can go on the wall the day it arrives without a separate trip to a hardware shop. The same applies to canvas editions, which come prepared for hanging as part of the build rather than as an afterthought. This is standard across the catalogue, not a special feature of particular works.

It is worth saying plainly that Auvrique does not currently offer editions by Lili Elbe, so no Lili Elbe print hanging kit exists to buy here today. The answer above describes how framed and canvas editions are supplied generally, and it holds for any work in the range, whether that is a framed poster like By the Lorne River near Caen or a canvas from the wider collection.

Why the hardware question matters

Missing hardware is a real and common frustration. A print that arrives beautiful but without a single screw wastes an evening and sours the purchase. That is why the kit is treated as part of the product rather than an optional extra. The expectation is simple. Open the box, read the wall, hang the work.

The mechanics differ slightly by format. A framed poster hangs from the frame itself, so the fixings suit a standard wall and a picture hook or screw does the job. A canvas is lighter than it looks and often sits flush to the wall, which changes what you need. For a fuller walkthrough, the guide on hanging a canvas without a pre-drilled wall covers canvas hanging without drilling in detail.

Choosing the format for your wall

If the hardware question is really a question about which format to buy, the honest comparison is straightforward. A framed poster gives you a defined edge and a traditional wall presence, and the included kit suits that weight. A canvas reads as a single object with no frame line, and it hangs with its own fixtures. Both are ready to hang on arrival.

For a sense of how the two formats differ in a room, it helps to look at concrete examples rather than descriptions. A framed work such as Undergrowth, Framed Poster behaves differently on a wall than a canvas like Eucalypti near Arch Beach, California, and the format guide explains canvas versus framed poster differences if you want the full breakdown before deciding.

A print without its fixings is furniture without legs. The kit is not a bonus, it is the product finishing the job.

What each format includes

Key takeaways

Hanging hardware is included with both framed and canvas editions as standard.
No separate trip to a hardware shop is needed before hanging a print.
Auvrique does not currently offer Lili Elbe editions, though the kit policy applies across the catalogue.
Framed and canvas formats hang differently, so the included fixings are matched to the format.

Related questions

Do I need to buy my own hooks or screws?

No. The hanging hardware ships with the print, matched to the format you ordered. A framed poster includes fixings suited to a standard wall, and a canvas arrives with its hanging fixtures. The only thing you supply is the wall and a few minutes with a level.

Is a canvas harder to hang than a framed print?

Not usually. A canvas is lighter than a framed piece of the same size and often sits closer to the wall. The included fixtures account for this. If your wall is awkward, the guide on hanging canvas without pre-drilled holes walks through the alternatives in plain terms.

Can I hang a print on a brick or plaster wall?

The included kit assumes a standard wall. Brick, tile and older plaster sometimes need different anchors, which is a wall question rather than a print question. Check the wall type before hanging, and use anchors rated for that surface. The print itself needs no modification either way.
