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
Eight angels lift Our Lady, and she lifts nothing; her hands are joined. She stands on a crescent moon, and far above her the Trinity holds out the crown. On a sheet of music to the left of her head, in tiny letters, runs Ave regina celorum, and the National Gallery of Art traces the music to Walter Frye's setting of that Marian antiphon; Frye was an English composer popular at the Burgundian court. The Master of the Saint Lucy Legend painted the instruments with care, loud trumpets and shawms beside soft vielle, lute and harp, and the angels play them as the musicians of his day did.

And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
