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 giant wades a river bent over his staff, and the weight on his shoulders is the Christ Child. The Boijmans tells how the heathen Reprobus carried a child across the water and felt Him grow unbearably heavy, for it was Jesus, who bears the weight of the sins of the world. Baptised, the giant took the name Christopher, Christ-carrier, and became the patron saint of travellers. Bosch sets the crossing in an extensive landscape dotted, as the museum says, with extraordinary scenes, and any road in it could be the one you take tomorrow.
