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

Christ lifts His eyes above the bread, and around Him crowd people who will never be named. Luke's two travellers know Him only at the breaking of the bread, and then He is gone. Veronese, or his workshop, has put a whole family into that scene; the French national record catalogues them only as a man, a woman, a child, a servant, a spaniel. No patron is recorded. The Louvre's history begins in Turin by 1635, with the Duke of Savoy, then runs through Marshal Créquy to Louis XIII. At Créquy's death in 1638 the inventory gave no painter's name. Two small children keep hold of the dog.

And their eyes were opened: and they knew him. And he vanished out of their sight.
