Ordering a Roger Fry Print in a Size Not Listed

The editions are sold at fixed dimensions, and that constraint is real. Here is what can and cannot be done when the size you need is not on the page.

Auvrique Editorial · Fine Art Editions

The short answer

No. Roger Fry prints at Auvrique are produced in the fixed sizes listed on each product page, and there is no custom size option at checkout. If your wall needs a different dimension, the practical routes are choosing the closest listed size, adjusting the framing, or picking a different Fry edition whose proportions suit the space.

Why the sizes are fixed

Each edition is produced from a scan of the original work, and the listed sizes are the ones that hold the image at its correct proportions. Fry's paintings were not made to a standard canvas shape, so a Beaumes landscape and a still life of flowers will sit differently on a wall and scale differently at any given width. Stretching or cropping a composition to hit an arbitrary dimension distorts the picture.

That is the honest constraint. A custom size Roger Fry print is not something the ordering system supports, and asking for one through customer service will not unlock a hidden option. What the fixed range does offer is choice within it. Most editions run from small formats suited to a study or hallway up to large formats that hold their own above a sofa, and the proportions are stated clearly on each page.

Workarounds when the size is wrong

The first move is to measure the wall, not the artwork. If a listed size falls short of the space, a frame with a wider mount can add several centimetres of visual width without changing the print itself. If the listed size is too large, the same logic applies in reverse. A slim frame keeps a mid-sized edition from dominating a narrow wall.

The second move is to change the work rather than the dimensions. A tall, narrow wall often suits a vertical still life better than a stretched landscape. The Peonies and Poppies framed poster carries a different set of proportions from the River with Poplars canvas, and one of them will usually fit where the other will not. If you are weighing format against dimensions, the comparison between canvas and framed editions is set out in more detail elsewhere in the guide to choosing a format.

Practical options

Measure the wall space first, including any furniture below it
Use a wider mount or frame to extend the visual footprint of a smaller print
Choose an edition with proportions closer to the space you have
Group two smaller editions side by side to fill a large wall evenly

What to check before ordering

Every product page states the dimensions of the edition and, for framed pieces, the outer dimensions once the frame is added. Read both. A print that fits the wall can still be defeated by a frame that does not clear a shelf or a light switch. The few minutes spent with a tape measure are the cheapest part of the whole transaction.

If the exact dimensions remain a sticking point, it is worth reading how the editions available as canvas prints differ in how they sit on a wall, since a canvas reads larger at the same measurement than a framed poster behind glass. For rooms where size is the governing problem, the guide to Fry prints in small spaces covers scale directly. The question of what fits a given wall, including a 120x150 cm example, is answered in its own piece.

A print that is the wrong size is not a bargain at any price.

Problem	Possible fix	What it costs you
Wall is wider than any listed size	Wider mount or frame, or a pair of editions	A little more wall prep and layout planning
Wall is narrower than the print	Slimmer frame, or a vertical edition	Less breathing room around the image
Proportions feel wrong	Switch to an edition with a different aspect ratio	A different picture than the one you had in mind
Ceiling height is generous	Hang the largest listed size slightly lower	None, if the furniture below allows it

Matching the problem to the fix

Key takeaways

Roger Fry editions are sold only in the fixed sizes listed on each product page.
Custom dimensions are not available, and no workaround changes that at checkout.
Framing choices, mounts and edition selection can solve most sizing problems.
Measure the wall and the frame's outer dimensions before ordering anything.

Related questions

Can I ask Auvrique to crop a Roger Fry image to fit my frame?

No. The editions reproduce the full composition as painted, and cropping to an arbitrary dimension would either cut away part of the picture or distort it. If the proportions of a work do not suit your space, another edition with a different aspect ratio is the better route.

Do the listed sizes include the frame?

Product pages state both the print dimensions and the outer dimensions of the framed piece where a frame is included. Check the outer figure, since that is what has to clear shelves, switches and neighbouring furniture. The distinction matters most in tight hallways and above sideboards.

Is a bigger Roger Fry print always better value?

Not necessarily. Price rises with size, but the right size depends on the wall and the viewing distance. A large print hung in a narrow corridor reads as crowding, not generosity. Buy the dimension the room needs, and treat any per-square-centimetre saving as secondary.
