New Beginnings

Every piece is printed to order, so the size you choose is the size it stays. Here is how each one measures, and where it tends to look best.

Sizes

Size	Portrait	Landscape	Centimetres
Small	12 × 16 in	16 × 12 in	30 × 41 cm
Medium	18 × 24 in	24 × 18 in	46 × 61 cm
Large	30 × 40 in	40 × 30 in	76 × 102 cm

Each piece comes as a 100% cotton rag fine art print or a gallery-wrapped canvas, with framing options to suit your room. Measurements above refer to the artwork itself — framed pieces sit inside a solid wood frame, so the finished piece on your wall will be a little larger.

Where each size works

• Small — a hallway, a desk, above a nightstand, or as one piece in a gallery wall.
• Medium — the most versatile of the three. Above a console or dresser, or hung as a pair.
• Large — a statement above a sofa or bed. Give it at least five feet of clear wall.

Three rules that make art look right

• Two thirds. A piece hung above furniture should span about two thirds of that furniture’s width. Above a 60-inch sofa, that is roughly a 40-inch piece — or two smaller ones hung together.
• Eye level. Hang so the centre of the artwork sits 57 to 60 inches from the floor. That is the height galleries use, and it is lower than most people guess.
• Six to eight inches. Leave that much space between the top of a sofa, headboard or console and the bottom of the frame, so the two read as one arrangement rather than two.

Original paintings

Each original is hand painted, one of one, and comes in a single size listed on its own page. Originals ship rolled in a protective tube rather than framed, so you can choose a frame that suits your room.

Still not sure?

Measure your wall and mark the size out with painter’s tape before you order. It takes two minutes and it is the best way to know.

Or write to me at info@aleksandrahomesin.com and tell me about the room. I am glad to say which size I would choose.
