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
A blindfold, a rope, a raised fist, and at the edge a drum. Christ sits bent forward, wrapped in blue, and says nothing. The Alte Pinakothek describes Him suffering silently between tormentors who beat Him to the rhythm of drum and pipes, after the questioning before Caiaphas, when they spat on Him, covered His face and struck Him. The museum singles out the cloth, the rope and the slender hands, and calls this an early work in which Matthias Grünewald already shows the great colourist. The drum keeps time. The One who cannot see is the One they cannot stop looking at.

And they blindfolded him and smote his face. And they asked him saying: Prophesy: Who is it that struck thee?
