Pick the furniture and a print size to see it to scale on your wall.

Print
24 × 24 in, filling the paper (trims 3.9 % of the picture)
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.

Default greige

Standard paper sizes that keep this painting’s proportions, the frames that fit them, and how sharp each one prints.

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.
