Welcome to Your Personal Art Print Sizing Consult

The right print size creates a quiet conversation between artwork and architecture. It creates a relationship that deepens with time. Each photograph in my limited edition collection is offered in three carefully considered dimensions, chosen to honor the integrity of the work while allowing it to live gracefully in spaces both intimate and grand. Whether you seek a gentle whisper for a bedside table or a commanding presence above your dining table, the question is always the same: how do you want this piece to speak in your home?

Use this guide as a gentle reference as you explore. And if you would like a second set of eyes or a more personal recommendation, I am always happy to help.

The Bold Declaration

A statement of quiet confidence. This scale transforms a room not through volume, but through presence. The way a single peony can command an entire table. It asks for thoughtful placement and rewards with impact: above the bed in your master suite, anchoring a great room, or presiding over gatherings in your dining space. When you choose this size, you're choosing to let beauty take center stage.

Perfect For:

  • Above king & queen beds
  • Large living room walls
  • Dining room statement walls
  • Grand entryways
  • Loft & open-concept spaces
  • Grand interiors & hotel-inspired elegance

When choosing between sizes, remember this: each dimension carries the same depth, the same careful craftsmanship, the same quiet magic. What changes is not the quality of the art, but the way it breathes in your space. The question is not which is better. It is which feels most like home.

Frame & Display Recommendations

How you frame a piece of art is how you frame a moment. The right presentation doesn't compete with the work. It disappears into its service, allowing the photograph to breathe, to resonate, to become what it was always meant to be: the quiet center of attention in your space.

Frame Recommendations

Museum-quality print sizes pair beautifully with simple, elegant frames that allow the artwork to remain the focal point. Consider natural wood tones, white, or black frames depending on your interior palette. The frame width should be proportional to the print size: 1-2 inches for smaller prints, 2-3 inches for larger ones.

Matting Considerations

While matting is optional, a clean white or cream mat can add breathing room and elevate the presentation. For an 8×10 print, consider an 11×14 frame with mat. For 16×20, try a 20×24 frame. This extra space creates visual rest and draws the eye inward.

Hanging Height Guidelines

The center of your artwork should be at eye level, typically 57-60 inches from the floor. When hanging above furniture, leave 6-12 inches of space between the furniture top and the bottom of the frame. For gallery walls, maintain 2-3 inches between frames for cohesion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing the right art print sizing depends on both wall width and the role the artwork will play in the space. For smaller living rooms or intimate seating areas, a 16×20 inch print creates a refined focal point without overwhelming. For larger walls or statement placements above sofas or sectionals, an 18×24 inch print offers greater presence and balance. When in doubt, consider how boldly you want the artwork to speak within the room.
To determine the best wall art dimensions, measure the width of the available wall space or the furniture below it. A general guideline is for artwork to occupy approximately two-thirds to three-quarters of the width of the wall or furniture beneath it. This proportion helps the piece feel intentional and visually grounded.
Both sizes are considered medium-to-large fine art print sizes, but they serve slightly different purposes. A 16×20 inch print offers versatility and works beautifully in pairs or as a refined focal point. An 18×24 inch print has more visual weight and is ideal for statement walls, larger rooms, or spaces that benefit from a stronger anchor.
For most spaces, the center of the artwork should sit approximately 57-60 inches from the floor, which aligns with standard eye level. When hanging above furniture, leave 6-12 inches between the top of the furniture and the bottom of the frame. Proper photography print sizing paired with thoughtful placement ensures the artwork feels cohesive within the room.
Above a sofa, artwork should span roughly two-thirds of the sofa's width. In most living rooms, this makes a 16×20 inch print suitable for smaller sofas or paired arrangements, while an 18×24 inch print works best for larger sofas or sectionals. Selecting the right museum-quality print size helps create balance without overpowering the space.
For collectors seeking a bespoke dimension—whether for an architectural detail or a deeply personal vision—I am honored to create custom sizes. These requests are considered thoughtfully, ensuring the final work honors both your space and the integrity of the photograph.
Yes. Many collectors choose to collect the same image in different fine art print sizes for use across multiple rooms or as part of a cohesive gallery wall. Each size is produced with the same attention to detail, archival materials, and craftsmanship.
Yes. All size comparison images are shown to scale to help visualize how each artwork will appear in a real interior. While screen size and room proportions may vary, these references are designed to provide a clear sense of relative art print sizing before selecting a final size.
Choosing artwork is both a practical and intuitive process. If deciding between sizes, trust that each scale is designed to carry the same depth, detail, and presence. The difference lies in how boldly the artwork is meant to speak within the space.

This guide is intended to offer clarity and confidence when selecting fine art for your home. Each size is designed to honor the artwork while adapting gracefully to a wide range of interiors.
