How big of a picture will this light luminate? I have a 16 by 22 inch HxW. WIll this light work for that size

It depends on your own feeling of illumination. I use it to light up an oil painting by my wife smaller than 16x22. I use it for 8x10 canvas and it lights that up very nicely in a dark hallway. Hope that helps

This is not a bright light. It will give a greenish glow to the top portion of the light but I could not have been more disappointed in both its color and output. To be fair, all picture lights obviously emit more light to the top than to the bottom, but the dim nature of this one meant that the falloff was more dramatic.

I am very pleased with this light! We have it set above a big (31.5" wide and 42" long) oil painting and it illuminates the top half very well and then fades as it reaches the bottom. It is ideal for our picture because the picture is a street scene and with the light at the top, it mimics the street light in the painting--beautiful! I think it would illuminate a 16x22 inch very well. I would recommend this product!

I have three paintings 18" X 22" and one 22" x 30" all four of them luminate very well. Im still very happy with these lights!! I hope that helps you,,,I agree with the other comment as well. It's your own interpretation of illumination. I have a couple hard wired painting lights in another room they of course are like a spot light and I use a dimmer to keep the lighting right for my own taste. I have three of the Rite Lite LPL602B in my living room I use with the 18" X 22" paintings and the ambience is perfect. occasionally Ill will even dim them a bit .

Yes It should work fine. I highly recommend that you purchase the Right Lite with the 6 LED lights with the remote dimmer. (Rite Lite LPL602B) Good Luck

I doubt if you would be happy with this light on a picture that large. The light is only 9 inches long, and not terribly bright, so centering the light on a picture that wide is probably asking too much.

it will work but your going to have to increase your iso a lot. unless there is adaquit lighting. I had troubles with mine and i returned it

My guess is this one will be too bright for you. It's almost too bright for us. There's no way it's the "very dim" you're looking for. We finally gave up looking for a dim one and settled for this. (At least it's cute.) Good luck!

Sorry, don't know for sure. i just measured length and width of light and it was correct as described....to work.

I have a 110 4ft by 3ft i bought two of them. You can't go wrong. They are a great light.

thank you for the question actually I returned it back as it didnt match my requirements using it in big room, regarding resolution and illumination (lumins units) wish to help you more :)

It's actually a bit small for that...that's the same reason I bought it, but it has not worked out very well for me. The light is very bright, but only if it is directly over your work.

I ended up returning this fixture because it was a little bigger and bulkier than what I wanted. Check out lumens.com. They have tons of selections and their customer support is probably the nicest and most helpful of any website I have ever dealt with.

It should work fine but I would recommend a smaller diameter Softlighter, perhaps a 36-48 inch if they make those sizes. I love the 60 inch but is a bit cumbersome in tight spaces.

this light is more of an ambient light. Even though the bulb is fairly bright the distance of projected light is about 12". I would say that two of these lights would not be enough lighting for an image that large. I have one over a 24" x 19" pastel at dusk and the top third shows up in a darkened room. This light is best used on small imagery. The screw mount bracket is 5 5/32" x 1 1/2" and has a built in level.

I can't respond to those dimensions as my light is for a 13" x 16" painting surrounded by a 3-1/2" frame. The light certainly is satisfactory for my needs.

In a fully dark room, once your eyes adjust then this would work. The lighting it very dim. Sorry I cant give you an empirical measurement in lumens.

I would choose another light. The soldering on this light looks like a child did it. But as far as the size, it might work.

I had it mounted on the wall. The picture is about 4 feet by 4 feet and dark. I am not really happy with the illumination. The "lines" of the light are great and loved the color.

Hi MaryKate: I don't recommend this product. It gives off very little light. I regret having bought it. It is purely decorative. Certainly not functional. I have it placed on the wall in lieu of a picture. Appx 9" across the top and 8" high.

Standard 20x20 base plate size. Depends on the model, there is only one light in the centre and it is not overly bright. Some models work well, others don't show up very well.
