The ticket

The Spanish Singer is a painting by Edouard Manet (French, Paris 1832–1883 Paris), dated 1860. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 58 x 45 in. (147.3 x 114.3 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its European Paintings collection — Gift of William Church Osborn, 1949.

The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 2,994 × 3,811 pixels — 11.4 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 10 × 12.7 in. The painting itself measures about 45 × 58 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.
