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

Bones lie at the foot of the Cross, a skull and a few plants beside them. The dead lie under the One who is dying for them. Dalila Rodrigues, writing for the Grão Vasco museum, reads them as the sign of Calvary as the burial place of Adam and Eve; below, in the predella, Christ descends into Limbo, and Adam and Eve are there. Above, Our Lady swoons among the holy women, with the Magdalene and Saint John. Vasco Fernandes and Gaspar Vaz raise a wall of faces, spears and horses behind them. The bad thief twists. Jerusalem stands far off; on the right, Judas hangs.

And when they were come to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified him there: and the robbers, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.

Luke 23:33 · Douay-Rheims (Challoner)
