Graham Large Picture Light, Aged Brass

For an ideal aesthetic, a picture light should typically be between one-half and two-thirds the width of the frame it is illuminating. At 24.5 inches wide, this fixture is the perfect scale for artwork or mirrors ranging from 30 to 40 inches wide. The 7.5-inch to 10.5-inch adjustable extension allows you to move the light source further away from the wall to clear thick, ornate frames, ensuring the light reaches the bottom of the canvas without casting a shadow from the top of the frame. The Aged Brass finish adds a gallery-quality sophistication that elevates the presentation of any piece.

This fixture is designed with a telescoping arm that allows the extension to shift from a minimum of 7.5 inches to a maximum of 10.5 inches. This is particularly useful if you have a deep-profile canvas or a shadow box; you can extend the light further out to ensure the 3-bulb cluster illuminates the entire surface evenly. By adjusting the distance from the wall, you can also control the intensity and spread of the light, allowing you to fine-tune the focus on your artwork. Because it is dimmable, you can easily transition the display from a vibrant daytime focal point to a soft, museum-like accent in the evening.

The manufacturer recommends using E26 Medium Base T10-5.5 bulbs. Because the shade is a slim, linear cylinder with a 2-inch diameter, a standard round bulb will not fit. The T10 bulb features a slender, tubular shape that slides perfectly into the shade, allowing the light to be distributed evenly across the entire 24.5-inch width. Since this light uses three separate sockets, using these elongated bulbs ensures there are no dark spots in your display. With a 120-inch wire length included, you have plenty of lead for a clean, professional hard-wired installation behind your favorite piece of art.
