Drag the print to move it. The painting is shown at true scale; where its shape differs from the sheet the print has a paper border, not drawn here. Prints are sold unframed, and a frame here is only for planning.

What is dpi?
Dots per inch: how many pixels of the museum’s file go into each inch of paper. Our floor is 240 for sheets up to 20 inches, 180 up to 36 inches and 120 beyond, because a larger print is seen from further away. We never offer a sheet below the floor, and the number on each size is the one you receive.

All editionsAbout this painting
The gold in this picture is in the wrong place. The kings' gifts only look like gold — they are paint. The haloes, and the light coming off the Christ Child, are real shell gold, and they alone glow in the dark of the stable. Dolci inscribed the back of the canvas in his own hand, recording the commission in 1649, when he was thirty-three. He is in the picture too: the man in the red hat, peering round the door at the far right.

And entering into the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and falling down they adored him: and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts; gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Matthew 2:11 · Douay-Rheims (Challoner)
