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.

Behind, Saint Joseph knocks down nuts with a long stick, which Hand reads as a variation on the palm miracle. Gerard David leaves the basket shut and the donkey waiting.
