Lautrec’s poster for the novel Reine de Joie: a courtesan leaning to kiss a stout old banker across a supper table, a wine glass and the round of a bottle set out plainly on the cloth in front of them. A book advertisement that made the whole of Paris blush — the decadent supper as its own genre, wine and all. A faithful reproduction of a public-domain lithograph at The Art Institute of Chicago. The wine glass sits at the exact centre foot of the poster — the still, sober object under all the scandal. Every age has a supper it pretends not to have attended.

Before a size goes on sale, the file is measured against it: pixels per inch at that size, how much of the picture a crop would lose, tone and sharpness. A size that fails is not offered, so there is nothing to choose wrong.
