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

The picture of the Devil tempting Saint Augustine was taken from the Augustinians. Munich's acquisition line records it flatly: the panel arrived in 1812 as secularised property from the Augustinian canonry at Neustift near Brixen. The Devil holds out a book in which a man's sins are written. Beyond that the Alte Pinakothek publishes nothing at all — no description, no literature. What it does give is Swiss pine, 103 by 91 centimetres, and a date of about 1480.
