Which size is right for your space?
- Living room (above sofa): 48x32
- Bedroom (above headboard): 36x24 or 48x32
- Dining room: 36x24 or 48x32, depending on wall size
- Home office or den: 30x20 or 36x24
- Large foyer or entryway: 48x32
- Hallway, bathroom, or gallery wall: 18x12 or 24x16
When in doubt, go bigger than you think. The art, including any frame, should fill about ⅔ the width of the furniture beneath it. Sizes listed are the photograph itself; framed paper prints, with a 2" mat and frame, are about 3–5" larger in each direction.

Framed prints arrive ready to hang
Framed paper prints are matted with a 2" white mat and protected by non-glare acrylic, so the image stays clear without reflections from windows or lights. Acrylic is lighter and safer to ship than glass, and every framed print arrives with hanging hardware already attached.
MetalPrints with a float mount or frame also arrive ready to hang.

About this photograph
Portland Head Light during a winter storm break captures that brief window when snow has accumulated but the storm clouds are clearing—creating dramatic sky without active precipitation. The fresh snow covers the rocky coastline, keeper's quarters, and fence-lined walkway while the dark Atlantic provides stark tonal contrast.
Converting to black and white emphasizes this contrast: bright snow against dark water and clearing storm clouds, the white lighthouse tower standing out against the complex sky. Monochrome removes color's distraction, focusing on the tonal drama created by winter storm conditions—the interplay between snow's brightness and the ocean's darkness.
The fence creates leading lines toward the light station while the clearing sky above suggests the storm's temporary pause. The challenge is preserving detail in both bright snow (which can easily blow out) and dark water while maintaining the full tonal range that makes winter coastal scenes compelling in black and white.
Monochrome treatment emphasizes dramatic tonal contrast during this winter storm break at Portland Head Light.
