Sizes

image 10×7 in on a 10×8 in sheet

The museum’s file supports 8×10 in at 311 dpi; a larger sheet would fall below our floor.

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

God the Father sets the crown on Our Lady as she kneels, hands at her breast, and a whole court leans in with lilies. The Uffizi reads the lilies as her purity and notes the priestly stole the angels carry for Him. Lower right, an angel unrolls a scroll, ISTE PERFECIT OPUS, this man completed the work, before a kneeling figure long taken for Lippi and now generally thought, New Liturgical Movement reports, to be Francesco Maringhi, the canon who commissioned it. At the left kneels a Carmelite friar in white, likely the painter himself, looking out at us. No scroll is unrolled for him.
