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.

About this painting

A heart hangs on the Cross, pierced by nails, and a white Host shines at its centre. Above it God the Father opens His arms and the Holy Spirit comes down as a dove; below, a lamb lies at rest, and two more hearts stand in the clouds. The Museo Blaisten publishes no commentary, only the facts: Cabrera, 1750, oil on copper, 43.5 by 33.5 centimetres. Jorge Luis Merlo Solorio argues the title is wrong and it should be the Allegory of the Sacred Heart: crucified with the consent of the Father and the Holy Spirit, Christ's heart immolates itself for universal salvation. All of heaven fits on a sheet of copper.
