In the room and when buying
Such pictures work in kitchens, offices and stairwells, where their wit or clarity starts conversations. Ask about size, varnish and framing. If lettering appears in the picture, check legibility and hanging height. With pictures that contain lettering it helps to measure the wall: where text appears, it should sit at eye level.
