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

Saint Bruno kneels on a low wooden step, arms folded over his breast, head bowed toward a crucifix and a skull on the table. Through the open door a garden lies in its rows. The Berlin Gemäldegalerie sees him as a slender figure in profile, and finds Le Sueur's talent as a still-life painter in the objects gathered in the cell under hard light: the big books, the hourglass, the crucifix, the console table, comparable to the Strasbourg specialist Sebastian Stosskopf. The museum sets the work nearer Philippe de Champaigne's realism than his teacher Vouet's Baroque, and calls its reality rather cold. The cross waits on the table.
