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 (1863). 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

Albert Bierstadt (1830–1902) traveled west in 1859 with an overland survey expedition led by Frederick W. Lander and made sketches in the Wind River Range of present-day Wyoming. Back in his New York studio he painted this view in 1863, naming the central peak for Lander. Snow-covered mountains rise above a lake fed by a waterfall, and on the meadow in front of them a Shoshone encampment of tipis, horses and people goes about the day.

The close-ups show how carefully the distance is built up. The waterfall drops through a gold-lit gorge into still water that mirrors the cliffs, with two tiny figures seated on the near shore. Behind the foreground trees, hillsides dotted with pines fade into haze, and sunlight catches on bare rock below the misty peaks.

The cool blue mountains and green meadow make this a classic choice of mountain wall art for a living room, a den or an office, and its wide shape suits a large canvas above a sofa or a fireplace. It pairs well with Frederic Edwin Church’s Heart of the Andes and Thomas Cole’s The Oxbow for a wall of nineteenth-century American landscapes.

What we did to this scan

  1. Used as the museum photographed and published it: no retouching and no color changes.
  2. Trimmed the museum's dark background and the canvas's unpainted edges, then cropped evenly to a 3:2 canvas — 7% of the photograph's area in all.
  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 painting. The museum's dark background and the canvas's unpainted edges were trimmed away and the picture cropped evenly to fit the canvas shape (7% of the photograph's area in all), then enlarged for print with an AI upscaler.

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 the painting show?
Snow-covered peaks rise above a mountain lake fed by a tall waterfall, with forested slopes on both sides. On the green meadow in the foreground is a Shoshone encampment of tipis, horses, dogs and people at work and at rest.
Is this an original painting?
No. It is a new print made from the museum's photograph of the painting, which hangs at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. We never sell originals or antiques.
Where does the image come from?
It comes from The Met's Open Access program. The painting is in the public domain, since Albert Bierstadt died in 1902, and the Met releases this image under Creative Commons Zero (CC0). The museum's record is linked on this page.
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.
