The most common mistake when affixing new art to the wall is hanging it WAY TOO HIGH. The general rule of thumb in the art world is to hang your piece at eye level. (And we are not talking the eye level of your 6 foot 5 inch well-meaning husband. ) Centering the mid-point of the art piece* 55" to 58" from the floor should accommodate the average viewer.*Don't fret my fellow lovers of the gallery wall - this rule can still apply. You simply center the collection of pieces as a whole within this range.
