Size

Which size fits your wall

Every size keeps the painting's own proportions. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame, so the visible painting is a little smaller.

12 × 16 in 30 × 41 cm

Three-seat sofa, 84 in wide × 34 in tall (213 × 86 cm)

Size	Metric	Where it works
12 × 16 in	30 × 41 cm	Small and close-up: a shelf, a desk or a bedside table, or one of a pair on a narrow wall.
18 × 24 in	46 × 61 cm	Plays well with others: the middle of a gallery wall, a pair side by side, or a hallway on its own.
30 × 40 in	76 × 102 cm	Holds a wall on its own above a dresser, console or sideboard. Above a bed or a sofa, hang two side by side.

Rule of thumb: choose art about two-thirds the width of the furniture beneath it.

Questions about sizes or framing? Ask us

This painting is pale lit skin and a silver beard against a black sky, and a cheap copy turns it flat and muddy. Our Bronzino Andrea Doria as Neptune print is made from the museum’s own photograph, nothing repainted, so the beard, the rope and the muscles stay sharp.

Canvas, framed or paper

Stretched canvas. Printed on cotton canvas and stretched taut over a frame. The edges are mirror-wrapped, so the picture continues around the sides and none of it is lost to the fold.

Framed canvas. The same canvas, set in a black, white, natural wood or dark wood frame 0.83 in deep. The frame gives the work a finished edge and a little more presence on the wall.

Framed print. Printed on fine art matte paper and framed in solid pine, behind shatterproof plexiglass, in black, white, natural wood or dark wood. It arrives ready to hang. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame.

Fine art print. Printed on 310gsm fine art matte paper, for framing your own way. It travels rolled and protected. From 18x24 inch.

Sizes

12x16 inch, 18x24 inch, 30x40 inch. Framed sizes are measured on the outside of the frame, so the visible painting is a little smaller.

On your wall

Its tall shape suits a study, a hallway or a living room. The pale skin and dark sky look striking with charcoal, navy and walnut, and a black frame suits it.

About the painting

Portrait of Andrea Doria as Neptune by Agnolo Bronzino

An old admiral as a god

Andrea Doria commanded the fleet of Genoa and ruled the city. At about sixty he posed as Neptune, god of the sea, in the old Roman way of showing great men as heroes.

The oar under the trident

He first held a squared oar, the sign of his command over his own fleet. A later hand painted a trident over it, and its outline still shows faintly.

A museum of famous men

Bronzino painted it for Paolo Giovio, who filled his villa near Como with portraits of famous men. It stayed with Giovio’s heirs until the Brera bought it in 1898.

Questions

Is this the original painting?

No. The original hangs in a museum. What you receive is a fine art reproduction, remastered from the original and printed for you, with every mark where the artist left it.

Will the colour look flat?

This is where most reproductions disappoint, and it is where we spend the most time. Each work is graded side by side with the original: faithful to the artist’s colours, with the depth and warmth brought back, so it moves you on the wall the way it was meant to. Canvas reads a touch softer than a backlit screen, and every screen shows colour a little differently.

Will the edges be cropped?

Each size is a standard frame size, so we fit the painting by trimming a little from its edges. We never stretch or squash it, and we check every size by eye so no face, figure or signature is cut. On canvas the edges are mirror-wrapped, which keeps the whole picture on the front.

Which size is right for my wall?

Aim for about two-thirds the width of the furniture beneath it. Over a sofa or a sideboard, one of the two largest sizes will hold the wall. The size guide lists every size in inches and centimetres, with the kind of wall each one suits.

How long does it take?

Your piece is printed in 1–3 business days, then spends 5–12 business days in transit, tracked all the way. Delivery is free anywhere in the US. We are unable to deliver to PO boxes.

What if it arrives damaged?

Send us a photograph and we will remake it and send it again. There is nothing to return.

Can I return it?

Yes, within 30 days of delivery. Our returns policy has the details.
