- 16 × 20 in, filling the paper (trims 2.3 % of the picture)
- Center
- 51¼ in (130 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.

| Paper | Filling the paper | Printed whole | Frame | Frame with a 2 in mat | Frame with a 3 in mat | Sharpness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 × 10 in | trims 2.3 % | 8 × 9¾ in | 8 × 10 in ready-made | 12 × 14 in custom | 14 × 16 in custom | 608 dpi, crisp up close |
| 11 × 14 in | trims 4.1 % | 11 × 13½ in | 11 × 14 in ready-made | 15 × 18 in custom | 17 × 20 in custom | 434 dpi, crisp up close |

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.
