Painting size comparison

Pick up to four paintings and see their real size next to a person.

How it works

Choose up to four paintings. We draw them to scale next to a person 1.7 m (5 ft 7 in) tall, using the height and width of the painted surface without the frame. Sizes come from museum records where available and from Wikidata otherwise; every painting page lists its sources.
