Large Paintings for a Home Gym

Paintings with real scale: big canvases that still read from across the room when you print them large. Go medium to large, 24×36 in (60×90 cm) or more, and hang higher than usual if the wall is behind a bike or treadmill so the picture is at eye level when you are on the machine. Here are 61 paintings for a home gym, each at least 100 cm (39 in) on its long side, with works by Joseph Mallord William Turner, Thomas Cole and Winslow Homer.
