Where Print size

Print: 24 × 24 in, filling the paper
Center: 67¼ in (171 cm) from the floor
Above the mantel: 6 in (15 cm) from the mantel to the frame
Ideal width: 44 to 50 in over a 66 in mantel
Why this height: Centered at eye level, this frame would not sit 4 to 8 in above the mantel, so the 6 in gap sets the height.

24 × 24 in square print (61 × 61 cm), centered 67¼ in from the floor, 6 in above the mantel. Drawn to scale on a 12 × 8 ft wall.

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.
