Step 1 of 3

Choose a size

Size

Will it fit? Check these sizes against your wall

Measure the wall between whatever bounds it — window trim, a doorway, the corner. Sizes are judged hung (frame included) with 6 in of breathing room, two-thirds the width of the furniture under them, and the center at eye level (57–60 in). Guidance, not a guarantee: the true-size template is the final check.

  • No hanging hardware is included. Stretched and framed canvases hang flat on two nails or screws, set level: the wooden bar on the back rests on them, and the free wall template marks the spot. Rolled canvas goes to a framer first.
  • Printed from an archive scan of the original print (1922; original ca. 1300–1224 BCE). Its paper tone, small spots and marks of age are part of the picture, just as on the original sheet, and colors can look slightly different on your screen.

Materials & finish

Printed on 400 gsm canvas with pigment inks. Stretched canvas and float frame canvas sit on a 1.5 in (38 mm) wooden stretcher; the classic frame holds the canvas on a slimmer 0.75 in (19 mm) stretcher. Rolled canvas ships in a sturdy tube.

The float frame stands 2.1 in (53 mm) off the wall, with a 0.5 in (12 mm) face and a 0.2 in (5 mm) gap around the canvas. The classic frame stands 0.9 in (22 mm) off the wall with a 0.8 in (20 mm) face.

Hanging hardware is not included. Two picture hooks (or screws) rated for the weight, set level, are all it needs; the free true-size wall template marks the spot.

The story of this print

The Fields of Iaru were the Egyptian paradise: a land like Egypt itself, only better, where the grain grew taller and the work was a pleasure. On the wall of his tomb at Deir el-Medina, the craftsman Sennedjem painted himself and his wife Iineferti there. In neat bands framed by a border of blue water, they kneel before the gods, reap golden wheat, plow behind spotted cattle and gather flax, and along the bottom runs a garden of date palms, sycamores and flowers.

This print is made from the full-size facsimile that Charles K. Wilkinson painted in tempera in 1922 for the Metropolitan Museum’s Egyptian Expedition, copying the wall on site. The Met releases its photograph into the public domain, and we print it as published, enlarged 2× for print. The rich yellows, greens and blues make it one of the warmest Egyptian pictures for a living room or study.

What we did to this scan

  1. Used as the museum photographed and published it: no retouching and no color changes.
  2. Trimmed off the dark mount around the facsimile in the museum's photograph.
  3. Enlarged 2× for print with Real-ESRGAN, an AI upscaler, so the brushwork holds at large sizes.

About this particular sheet. Made from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Open Access photograph of the facsimile, with the dark mount edge round it trimmed off and the photograph enlarged 2× for print; the museum's record is linked on this page. Cracks, losses and faded areas are part of the facsimile, which records the wall as it was found.

Every print is credited to its archive here and in your order confirmation. Paper tone and small imperfections of the original are kept on purpose; nothing is redrawn. How we restore.

Questions

What does it show?
The craftsman Sennedjem and his wife Iineferti working the fields of the afterlife, in bands framed by a blue border of water: at the top they kneel before seated gods, then they reap tall golden grain, plow with a pair of spotted cattle and harvest flax, and at the bottom a garden of palms and flowers lines the water.
Is it the original?
It is a print of a full-size facsimile that Charles K. Wilkinson painted in tempera in 1922 by copying the original wall painting on site, for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Egyptian Expedition. The Met releases its photograph of the facsimile into the public domain (CC0); we print that photograph, enlarged 2× for print, with nothing retouched.
Where does it hang best?
A living room, a study, a dining room or a hallway; anywhere a piece of history earns its space. The earthy reds, yellows and blues sit well with wood, brass, linen and terracotta.
How is it made?
It is printed to order for you, in the finish you choose: a float frame canvas, a classic frame canvas, a stretched canvas, a rolled canvas or an acrylic panel. Both frames come in Black or Antique Gold. The size and finish picker shows which sizes each finish is made in.
Colors vary a little between screens and canvas. The previews are drawn, not photographed, and are a close match to the printed piece.
