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.

About this painting

Domenichino paints the rebuke rather than the expulsion — the moment in Genesis when God asks the question and the blame begins to move, before anyone has been driven anywhere. The Roman collection that bought it had already decided otherwise: a 1679 Colonna inventory calls it Adam and Eve driven from the earthly paradise, so the title has been unstable since the seventeenth century. Lorenzo Onofrio Colonna paid seven hundred scudi for the picture in 1670, and it stayed with his family for well over a hundred years.

And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
