Ideally I would personally like it a bit bigger. Without seeing the other size I can't say it would or wouldn't work, though I am thinking it "might" be too large for that closed in area. Hard to say. If you can afford it and don't mind the hassle, I would get the other to see. I do like it!

I'd get the larger one at Kirkland and put it on the other wall.

The problem I see with it is more that, because you have no crown moulding, you therefore have an unframed all and an unframed piece of art, and think that is what is throwing it off and not allowing the canvas to work there. I'd throw some crown moulding up if you can.

I do think it's a bit too small. Maybe you could hang a narrow depth shelf across the wall, and put some accessories on it- maybe bright glass bottles, plates, or pottery? Then hang the canvas slightly above it. I would also turn the table so the chairs go in the corners, rather than up against the walls.

Yes, it's too small.

There is another possibility, you could take a larger piece of plywood and wrap it in linen or burlap and mount this one on top of it, thus creating a larger piece of work and a "frame" of sorts. I've seen this done and it's great looking.

Yes, put it in a nice wide frame, maybe a sconce on either side? and hang it higher, it's too low, to close to chair height.

What are you plans for the other wall and the rest of the room? Sometimes is hard to tell if you don't have the other elements in place. I do think it is too small.

I agree it looks a little too small. I'd buy the larger one or I also like the idea of the long shelf with a few simple accessories. My first pick would be for the large picture.

The good people here have offered many suggestions and ideas with which to play around. JLC's suggestion to hang the painting over a shelf and adding some decorative objects that flow with the painting is appealing. I second Yayagal's idea but instead of plywood use a lighter material for the board backing. Mounting the painting on a backing will not only make it bigger but will add more depth so that there is not a flat rectangle on the flat rectangle of the wall. Even though I am not one for clutter or lots of stuff around, I think you need some other elements in the dinette that play off the colors in the painting or from surrounding rooms to give the room a pulled together, thoughtful, finished look. Do you plan a centerpiece for the table, maybe have some fun selecting or making new place mats or even a tablecloth?

I plan to change out the placemats and adding s centerpiece using one of the colors in the picture. I would like to see some examples of some canvas mounted on a backing. I am not sure if I could do this or not. It would be so much easier if I could just find this in the right size!

Should be a little bigger but I do love the colors. I also love your wall color. What is it if I may ask?

The wall color is Behr's Riviera Beach

I think the larger would be perfect. It would only be ~10" wider on each side, which will still leave you a good amount of wall before the corners.

You can mark it off with blue painters tape (I know, I'm a broken record) to see.

I think the bigger size would be better. But I also think your table looks too big for the room, so that may be part of it.

I'd get the bigger version. It'll make much more of an impact.

Here's an example of what I mean, you could wrap a canvas or styrofoam piece that is at least six inches wider than what you have and then mount the painting on that. It will give another dimension to the piece, more texture and you can incorporate the burlap or linen in to you table scape like 3 vases wrapped in muslin with fresh flowers and a muslin runner etc Just an idea.

What picture?

A larger picture would look better, that size is a bit dwarfed by the wall. I would try it on a smaller wall, like the wall to the right of where it is hung now.

Mary, here is an approximation of what the 54 inch wide piece would look like.

Thanks justgotabme! That looks alot better than my newspaper! I also switched the chairs around per some earlier advice.

Chairs look good and the bigger size should do well.

Wow. The rearranging of the chairs makes a huge difference.

I know I can't believe how much better the area looks by moving those chairs.

Love the larger picture and moving the chairs made all the difference! And the colors in the artwork look really good.

Does anyone think the chandelier needs to be lowered?

that size is much better for that wall and the rearrangement of the chairs looks great!

Much better with the chairs moved and the larger picture! And yes, Karlene, I feel like the chandy is a bit high. Or maybe too solid for the space?

What a difference the chairs made. And the bigger pic will be perfect.

I like it. It fills the space nicely

Thanks Olychick for moving the chairs suggestion! I never thought of doing that. Those chairs have been like that for 19 years! That is why I like this forum so much. Everyone has such great ideas and comments!

And notice you didn't ask for suggestions about the chairs but some volunteered it because they "saw" it? Aren't you glad? One can always reject a suggestion, but to miss a great one, which makes a huge difference, is a shame.

exactly tibbrix! this is a perfect example of that!

Yet that's been called a no-no here in the past.

I'd turn the table too so that you can appreciate the sunburst pattern from the main viewpoint.

I've had the chairs around the breakfast table 'on the diagonal' since moving in almost 7 years ago, and no-no or not, they will stay that way.

Bigger picture or yaya's idea to make it look bigger.

that's strange justgotabme posted a pic earlier with the larger size canvas and the diagonal chairs and now it is gone.

I still see them. It's two different pictures - one above the other.

Patty_cakes, the no-no is commenting on things not specifically asked by the OP. Some here find it violates an etiquette rule.

I think it's a fine line .
Asking someone to move a chair in no way equates
to saying that the chairs just aren't working.
When she was only asking about a photo size.

Mary never asked about the arrangement ~~ but it's not as if someone posted
a bunch of pic's of chairs she should be using.

I think the problem is that it needs a frame to have some gravitas.
