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 rope runs from Christ's neck down to a man's fist at the rail, and His own hands are bound at the wrist. The crown of thorns sits low on His brow and a purple cloak slips from His shoulders; beside Him stands a heavy man in fur and a gold chain, and behind Him mouths hang open. Quinten Massys ran words right round the frame in gold leaf, the Prado records, from Lamentations: O vos omnes qui transitis per viam, attendite et videte si est dolor sicut dolor meus, all you who pass by, look, and see whether there is any sorrow like mine. Then the painter puts you in the street. The viewpoint is high, so you stand behind three men below Pilate's balcony, and one of them, turning from the shouting, seems, the Prado says, to be asking your opinion. The rope is still in that fist.
