Designer-preferred sizes:

  • 16×19 inches — intimate office or niche

  • 24×29 inches — versatile residential placement

  • 32×38 inches — ideal statement size

  • 40×48 inches — collector-level installation

Lighting is critical.

Use:

  • 2700K–3000K color temperature

  • Museum-grade picture light or ceiling accent light

  • 30-degree beam spread

  • CRI 90+

Avoid cool LEDs, which can make the stone tones feel sterile.

Frame Recommendation

  • Thin black metal frame

  • 1-inch white museum matte

  • Non-glare museum acrylic

The white matte gives the photograph room to breathe and emphasizes the sculptural forms.
