The size chart

How big can you print it?

Standard frame sizes, turned to match the artwork. "Crops" is how much of the picture you lose filling that frame edge to edge — or keep it all and let a mat take up the difference.

The ticket

The Conjurer is a painting by Hieronymus Bosch (Netherlandish, 's-Hertogenbosch ca. 1450–1516), dated ca. 1502. Oil on panel. Size on the museum record: 53 × 65 cm. Held by Musée municipal, Saint-Germain-en-Laye (workshop copy after Bosch); the free scan comes from Wikimedia Commons.

The conjurer wears a cheerful grin and a small owl rides in his basket. A frog is leaping out of a spectator's mouth, because the man is gawking so hard he has forgotten to close it. While his eyes are on the trick, the person next to him is taking his purse. It is a pickpocket joke from around 1500, and it still lands. This is a version from Bosch's circle rather than a surviving original, and the file is huge, so crop in on the spectators when you print.

The work is in the public domain, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 29,280 × 23,970 pixels — 701.8 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 97.6 × 79.9 in. That is bigger than the painting itself, which measures about 25.6 × 20.9 in — the file holds more detail than you can see standing in front of the original.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.
