What is the proper height for hanging a picture?
I heard something about 65cm from the floor. I think that is proper gallery height. I am just trying to get the proper eye level.
Answer:
Yes, I believe that you are right. I found this online:
"... rule of thumb is to hang all pictures at 57" on center. This is "gallery height" and roughly the average human eye level.
To do this you measure up 57" from the floor (mark here). You want your picture's center - whatever size - over this point, so measure your picture - top to bottom, divide it in half, ...
subtract whatever distance there is between wire and top of frame and then add that number to your 57". That is where you put the pin / nail in.
