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 sickle moon, and pressed flat beneath it, a dragon. Our Lady sits on the moon in red, crowned, and the dark around her is full of wings. Some fifty angels turn in rings, by the count of Küçükşen Öner, Yıldırım and Şen: the outer ring plays lutes, viols, trumpets and bagpipes, and six in the second carry the hammer, the crown of thorns, the column and the nails. Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen reads the vision from the Revelation of Saint John, and records that Geertgen tot Sint Jans made it as half of a diptych whose crucifixion is now in Edinburgh. Music and the Passion keep one orbit.
