As sort of a favor (I've previously declined similar requests when approached) I am selling my Fiancee's office 6 large metal prints for their lobby space. I'm letting them pick pretty much anything they want. The issue is, they want 36 inch prints and a lot of my images (and specifically ones they are looking at) are heavily cropped. The images they are looking at range from around 1800px to about 4000px. I've printed 36inch+ for personal use but all have been higher res files, even multi shot stitches.
1) is 1800px enough for a 36inch print for a typical small office lobby? (I know it's certainly not ideal)
2) should I scale the larger res files down to match the lower common denominator to keep the 6 images as cohesive as possible? Or even split the difference in size so it isn't as obvious that one has vastly more detail?
Any input would be appreciated!
