It depends on what equipment one views it with and whom you’re willing to have not be able to see the whole image, since 1700 px is a good deal more than some laptops can accommodate and maybe some desktops too. On my 13” MacBook Retina with display resolution set to 1440 x 900, the viewing window at full screen accommodates only about 80% of the height and width of the image, with some lost to the scroll bars, requiring scrolling to see it all. If I set resolution to max, 1680 x 1050, where text gets uncomfortably small, I see nearly all of the image. On my 21.5” iMac Retina (1920 x 1080), it fits comfortably.

Nice informal portrait, by the way.
