The ticket

Filippo Archinto (born about 1500, died 1558), Archbishop of Milan is a painting by Titian (Tiziano Vecellio) (Italian, Pieve di Cadore ca. 1485/90?–1576 Venice), dated mid-1550s. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 46 1/2 x 37 in. (118.1 x 94 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its European Paintings collection — Bequest of Benjamin Altman, 1913.

The Met catalogs Filippo Archinto (born about 1500, died 1558), Archbishop of Milan as an oil on canvas by Titian (Tiziano Vecellio). The museum dates it mid-1550s, and files it under accession 14.40.650 in European Paintings. People are the subject, and the grouping and gestures matter more than any single face; avoid cropping the edges. The Met's scan measures 3,221 × 4,000 pixels, which prints about 10.7 × 13.3 in at 300 dpi and 21.5 × 26.7 in at a still-comfortable 150 dpi. Because it runs tall, it wants a vertical frame; compare the crop percentage across sizes before you choose. Its muted earth tones are forgiving: natural wood softens the palette, walnut deepens it and black frames it like a gallery. Paintings reproduce best on matte paper, since gloss throws glare across exactly the brushwork you came for. Light it from above with a soft warm bulb, hang the centre of the picture near 57 inches, and it will read as intended instead of as decoration.

The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 3,221 × 4,000 pixels — 12.9 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 10.7 × 13.3 in. The painting itself measures about 37 × 46.5 in, so a true life-size print runs below 300 dpi — still sharp at normal viewing distance.Paintings reproduce best on matte paper. Gloss throws glare across exactly the brushwork you came for, and a picture light does more for a print than any upgrade in paper.
