The ticket

Landscape is a painting by George Inness (American, Newburgh, New York 1825–1894 Bridge of Allan, Scotland), dated 1884 or 1889. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 9 x 12 3/4 in. (22.9 x 31.2 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its The American Wing collection — Bequest of Miss Adelaide Milton de Groot (1876-1967), 1967.

In The Met's records, Landscape is an oil on canvas credited to George Inness. The museum dates it 1884 or 1889 (accession 67.187.211, The American Wing). The subject is a view, and the eye travels from the foreground to the distance; give it wall space so that route stays readable. The Met's scan measures 3,909 × 2,809 pixels, which prints about 13.0 × 9.4 in at 300 dpi and 26.1 × 18.7 in at a still-comfortable 150 dpi. Because it runs wide, it wants a horizontal frame; check the crop percentage for each size before you commit. Its golden tones pair naturally with a gold or walnut frame, or go black for a sharper, more modern contrast. Paintings reproduce best on matte paper, since gloss throws glare across exactly the brushwork you came for. Add a small picture light and keep the centre of the piece around 57 inches from the floor; those two choices make a reproduction look deliberate.

The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 3,909 × 2,809 pixels — 11 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 13 × 9.4 in. That is roughly life-size: the painting itself measures about 12.3 × 9 in.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.
