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
The Christ Child sits on a green cushion set on a basket, one arm flung wide, the other hand among the roses Rose holds out to Him. The Museo Lázaro Galdiano cites Rivadeneira: He appeared as a small Child while she worked at her needle to support her parents, and sat down on her sewing cushion. Artehistoria reads the seat as the work itself. The labour is not interrupted; it is taken for a throne. Artehistoria also makes the roses and the betrothal one act, and the Latin leaves His mouth: ROSA CORDIS MEI TU MIHI SPONSA ESTO. Rose of my heart, be my bride. Murillo sets a book and fallen roses at her feet and dresses her in the Dominican habit. A proposal of marriage, made over the work that fed her parents.
