The ticket

Signora Gomez d'Arza is a painting by Thomas Eakins (American, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1844–1916 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), dated 1901–2. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 30 x 24 in. (76.2 x 61 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its The American Wing collection — George A. Hearn Fund, 1927.

Signora Gomez d'Arza is an oil on canvas by Thomas Eakins, part of The Met's open-access collection. The museum dates it 1901–2 (accession 27.220, The American Wing). People are the subject, and the grouping and gestures matter more than any single face; avoid cropping the edges. The Met's scan measures 3,046 × 3,716 pixels, which prints about 10.2 × 12.4 in at 300 dpi and 20.3 × 24.8 in at a still-comfortable 150 dpi. Its tall proportions suit a hallway, a narrow wall or the gap beside a door, and the set builder shows how much each standard frame would crop. Its warm reds and oranges suit walnut or gold, which deepen the glow instead of washing it out. 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 3,046 × 3,716 pixels — 11.3 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 10.2 × 12.4 in. The painting itself measures about 24 × 30 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.
