Textured watercolor illustration of a jet-black cat burrowed into a rumpled cream blanket with slate-blue brushstroke stripes, peering over the top of an open mustard-yellow book with narrowed eyes and both paws gripping the edges, set against a muted sage-green wall. Clearly three chapters from the twist and deeply suspicious of anyone who might speak before then.
See it at real size
Every size of this piece at true scale, hung 8 in above an 84 in sofa. Over a sofa, art looks right at about two thirds of the sofa width: 56 to 63 in here.
Every size drawn to scale on a real wall, with the most chosen size shown as a blank framed canvas. Dashed line: the ideal art width over this 84 in sofa (56 in). Too narrow on its own? Hang two side by side.
- Measure the furniture, not the wall. Art over a sofa, bed, or dresser looks best at two thirds to three quarters of its width.
- Hang it at eye level. Center the art 57 to 60 in from the floor. Over furniture, leave 6 to 10 in between the furniture and the bottom of the art.
- Pairs and sets: leave 2 to 3 in between pieces and measure the pair as one width.
- Still unsure? Outline the size on your wall with painter's tape and live with it for a day.
