The ticket

The Seine at Bougival is a painting by Alfred Sisley (British, Paris 1839–1899 Moret-sur-Loing), dated 1876. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 18 1/4 x 24 1/8 in. (46.4 x 61.3 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its European Paintings collection — Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Dillon, 1992.

The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 3,907 × 2,938 pixels — 11.5 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 13 × 9.8 in. The painting itself measures about 24.1 × 18.3 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.
