I just watched the video on the Hahnemuhle site showing the procedure.
Does not look like the paper/canvas is stretched at all, just bent.
The bending is set up using a form to position the "stretchers",
adhering them to the print, removing the corner forms, trimming to
fit, then cutting the corners and wrapping them. Then you turn the
separate stretcher pieces 90° to form a frame. 'U' shaped pins secure
and hold the stretchers in position .

Hi Bruce: I have the Hahnemuhle Gallerie Photo Wrap Kit for 8 1/2 x
11", Monet Canvas. It comes with everything. I haven't used it
yet, but your post might prompt me to try something with it this
week or weekend. When I do, I'll let you know. It looks pretty
easy . . . I'll report back. Cheers, Christine

Subject: Gallery wrap: paper ok or only canvas will do?
I'm getting into printing and investigating mounting and displaying
methods. Gallery Wrap seems to be getting a lot of buzz lately, and I
see that Hahnemühle sells a DIY system that they call gallerie wrap:
