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
Saint Rosalie rises on a cloud in a plain brown habit, face lifted, hands opening outward, and a crowd of children carries her up. One holds a wreath of roses over her head; at the bottom lies a skull. The Met records that Anthony van Dyck was in Palermo in 1624 when plague broke out and the city was shut in quarantine, and that in the middle of the epidemic the long-lost remains of its twelfth-century patroness were found; images of her, the museum notes, were in great demand. There is a face under this one: the Met says he painted her over a self-portrait he had sketched on the canvas. By 1630 the Genoese collector Desiderio Segno listed it as Santa Rosalia in gloria. She looks up for the city, and underneath her lies the painter's own face.
