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
The back of this panel is painted too. Utrecht's record ends on fragments of an imitation stone finish on the reverse — a small gold-ground picture finished on both faces, because it was an object before it was an image. On the front Christ stands in the sarcophagus, knees bent, holding his own wound open and looking straight out at you. Mary is held up by John. Angels carry the nails, the sponge and the lance.
