The ticket

Frontispiece - Yvette Guilbert before the Prompter's Box is a print by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (French, Albi 1864–1901 Saint-André-du-Bois), dated 1898. Lithograph on laid paper. Size on the museum record: 19-3/4 x 14-7/8 in. (50.2 x 37.8 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its Drawings and Prints collection — Gift of Mrs. H. Wolf, 1917.

The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 2,840 × 3,747 pixels — 10.6 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 9.5 × 12.5 in. The print itself measures about 14.9 × 19.8 in, so a true life-size print runs below 300 dpi — still sharp at normal viewing distance.Line work lives or dies on contrast. Print it on a smooth, bright paper and give it a wide mat: small graphic work drowns in a thin frame and a big empty border makes it look like it came out of a print room drawer.
