- 36 × 48 in, filling the paper (trims 3.2 % of the picture)
- Center
- 61¼ in (156 cm) from the floor
- Above the sofa
- 8 in (20 cm) from the sofa to the frame
- Ideal width
- 56 to 63 in over an 84 in sofa
- Why this height
- Centered at eye level, this frame would not sit 6 to 10 in above the sofa, so the 8 in gap sets the height.

Sharpness is worked out from the largest file the museum offers. Above 300 dpi a print holds up at arm’s length; 150 dpi is plenty for a picture seen from across a sofa.
