An image generated with some of the in Adobe Firefly models was upscaled in photoshop (Topaz) to the maximum allowed. My image now measures 3584x4800, good quality, but still not large enough for a 100x150 cm print.
I could use Photoshop to enlarge the image and then apply an unsharp mask to restore some detail, but I'd like your opinion first.

How far away will people be when they view the image? See the answers from @D Fosse and @davescm that explain why you don't need 300 ppi (Pixels Per Inch) for large images.

@Milkoconlaelle whoa, that's a huge gap! Can you re-run it again from 3584x4800 a little, (trial & error) and if you need to juice it, you could change the image size and use bicubic smoother to increase the resolution to 300 DPI without further AI passes, and maybe try an unsharp mask or smart sharpen filter.
