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 red curtain is drawn back from a white bed, and Gabriel kneels barefoot on the floor with a lily in one hand, the other raised toward heaven. Our Lady bows her head, one hand lifted, the other at her breast. High in the open window the Holy Spirit comes in as a Dove, with the light. The Word is made flesh in a bedroom, between the curtain and the sheet. Orazio Gentileschi painted it in 1623, at the end of his Genoese years, and the canvas stands nearly three metres high, so the whole encounter has to be looked up into. Turin's museum publishes almost nothing about it: no essay, one mention by name. The Dove is still at the window.
And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
Luke 1:28 · Douay-Rheims (Challoner)
