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 wave breaks over the bow and tears the sail, and the disciples fight for the boat: one hauls at the rigging high on the mast, one is sick over the side, the rest clutch at ropes and oars. At the right, only Christ is calm. The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum calls this Rembrandt's most striking narrative painting in America and his only painted seascape, made in 1633, soon after he moved to Amsterdam. He painted the Gospel as a fishing boat of his own day caught in a sudden storm, and one man looks straight out at us, holding a rope and his cap; his face, the museum notes, seems familiar from Rembrandt's self-portraits. The painting was stolen from the Gardner in 1990 and has never been found. They woke Him, saying, Lord, save us, we perish. He rose, and there came a great calm.
