Just to elaborate a bit. The figure size in pixels is the figure size
in inches * the dpi. you can set the figure size in inches when you
create it
fig = figure(figsize=(6,8)) # 6x8 inches
and when you save it set the dpi
fig.savefig('somefile.png', dpi=200)
and you will have a 1200x1600 pixel PNG file.
