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.
| Frame | Effective dpi | Verdict | Crops |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 × 10 in | 390 | Gallery sharp | 5% |
| 11 × 14 in | 279 | Sharp up close | 6% |

| 16 × 20 in | 195 | Poster sharp | 5% |
| 18 × 24 in | 162 | Poster sharp | 11% |

The ticket
The Titan's Goblet is a painting by Thomas Cole (American, Lancashire 1801–1848 Catskill, New York), dated 1833. Oil on canvas. Size on the museum record: 19 3/8 x 16 1/8 in. (49.2 x 41 cm). The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds it in its The American Wing collection — Gift of Samuel P. Avery Jr., 1904.
The Met released its scan under CC0, which means no permission, no fee and no credit line required. That file is 3,279 × 3,907 pixels — 12.8 megapixels — good for a gallery-sharp print up to 10.9 × 13 in. The painting itself measures about 16.1 × 19.4 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.
