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
A dead man lies on his bier in red, and the living stand around him in their own clothes. Behind him an altar waits with its cross. "And devout men took order for Stephen's funeral and made great mourning over him." Fra Filippo Lippi and his workshop painted the mourning low on the left wall of the main chapel at Prato, and laid the saint, as the Web Gallery of Art reads it, on the central axis of a columned nave at the crossing, the tiled floor running up to the bier. The mourners are Lippi's contemporaries. Roggero Roggeri identifies the heavy figure at the right, in a cardinal's ample red, as Enea Silvio Piccolomini, later Pope Pius II. Tuscany's regional guide sees a probable self-portrait in the older of the two friars beside him: the painter, a friar himself, standing at the bier.
