Sizes
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
Flowers spill across a bishop's floor in the lowest corner, and that small spill is the whole proof. Antonio de Arellano and his son Manuel painted Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1691 as Mexico City venerated her: hands joined, mantle sown with stars, a crown above, the moon beneath her and an angel with spread wings bearing up her hem, the rays of her light ringed by a mandorla of flowers. Four roundels tell what LACMA's Ilona Katzew sets out: her appearances to Juan Diego on the hill of Tepeyac in 1531, ending where he unfolds his cloak before Bishop Juan de Zumárraga and her image is found printed on it. Juan Correa had made a waxed-paper template after that cloak so painters could copy her true, and on the lower edge the Arellanos wrote tocada a la original, touched to the original. She keeps her hands joined, and keeps them joined for us.
